Social media's role in fueling extremism and misinformation
Half of U.S. adults say they sometimes get their news from social media. However, almost two-thirds of adults say they view social media as a bad thing for democracy.

Judy Woodruff explores that more for her ongoing series, America at a Crossroads.
