Social Networks

TikTok, Instagram, and Snapchat each occupy a different functional role in teenagers’ daily lives, according to a new Pew Research Center study that surveyed 1,458 U.S. teens ages 13 to 17 and their parents between September 25 and October 9, 2025. Rather than functioning as interchangeable social media destinations, each platform attracts teens for meaningfully different reasons. TikTok Serves as an Entertainment and Discovery Engine Teen TikTok users go to the platform primarily to be entertained and informed. Roughly 96% cite entertainment as a reason they use the app, with 82% calling it a major reason, the highest share of any platform in the study. Beyond passive consumption, TikTok also leads the three platforms on product discovery: approximately 58% of teen TikTok users say they go there for product reviews or recommendations, compared with 48% on Instagram and 32% on Snapchat. News consumption follows a similar pattern. About 45% of teen TikTok users cite news as a reason they visit the platform, versus roughly 39% on Instagram and 26% on Snapchat. Keeping up with athletes and celebrities also skews toward TikTok and Instagram, with majorities of teen users on both platforms citing it as a reason they engage, compared with

(KNSI) – A 24-year-old Waite Park man is in custody after a shooting in Sartell Sunday morning and a brief manhunt. Sartell Public Safety Director Brandon Silgjord said Jakob Dylan Mohr turned himself in voluntarily and was taken into custody at around 11:50 a.m. Investigators had been searching for Mohr since earlier in the morning, when they say he fired multiple shots at another driver and then fled the scene. According to Silgjord, the Sartell Police Department responded to a report from a man who said he had been shot while driving. The victim told officers he had been traveling through St. Cloud when he noticed a vehicle following him closely and driving aggressively. Both vehicles continued northbound on Highway 15 out of St. Cloud before the victim exited onto County Road 120 in an attempt to get away. Near Sam’s Club, the suspect vehicle pulled alongside the victim’s car, and the driver fired multiple shots. One round struck the victim, who was able to call 911 after the suspect fled. The victim is being treated for his injuries and is expected to survive. Investigators later located the suspect vehicle at a bar in Sauk Rapids, though Mohr was not

Facebook and Google have generated profits from advertisements for unregulated health supplements, including products deemed illegal by various national health authorities, in breach of European laws, new research has claimed. Reset Tech, a German-headquartered non-profit with ties to eBay founder and philanthropist Pierre Omidyar, said it has collected more than 352,000 advertisements promoting so-called clickbait cures on Meta’s and Google’s platforms. The policy and research organisation said the adverts constitute a “direct violation” of articles 34 and 35 of the EU’s Digital Services Act (DSA), “regarding systemic risks to public health and the obligations of Very Large Online Platforms”. In response to questions from The Irish Times last week, Google and Facebook (owned by Meta) said they have strict rules around medical advertisements on their platforms and take swift action to remove content and ban advertisers.

Reset Tech has said the adverts have been seen by people across the EU.  » Read More

On Saturday, manager Matt Quatraro gave Salvador Perez a day off for the first time since August of last year, when the team captain missed two games due to illness. Other than that, his most recent day off without an injury or illness concern was June 21, 2025. Perez has struggled to start the year, hitting just .160/.210/.307 in 20 games. Quatraro said the day off was to give him a “little mental breather.” Salvy is famous not just in Kansas City, but around the league as a guy who doesn’t want to sit. Up until now, everyone has taken it in stride as a fun thing to make jokes about. Advertisement That perhaps is in a new context now. Salvy contradicted Quatraro, posting on social media, “I don’t need a mental breather.” He even went posted on Instagram, calling the idea he needed a break as “FAKE.”Sal DOES need time offMost of the Royals’ blogosphere spent the entire offseason pontificating that the team needed to play him less or at least shift him from behind the plate into a designated hitter role more often.  » Read More
