TikTok Told Me So: Where America Gets It's News

"If your kid tells you a world event happened, do you ask for a source—or just assume it came from TikTok?" In this fast-paced and hilarious episode of The Ben and Skin Show, hosts Jeff “Skin” Wade, Kevin “KT” Turner, and Krystina Ray (with Ben Rogers still out sick) dive into the surprising—and slightly terrifying—truth about where Americans are getting their news. Spoiler alert: TikTok is now a major news source for 1 in 5 Americans. That’s up from just 3% in 2020. The crew breaks down the implications of this meteoric rise, shares personal stories (including Skin’s son becoming an NBA expert via TikTok), and debates the future of journalism, attention spans, and misinformation.
