LONDON: A new poll has found that teenagers trust social media influencers more than politicians to tell them the truth about the news and current affairs.
The study, commissioned by BBC Education, surveyed more than 2,000 teenagers aged between 11 and 16 and found that social media is the main source of news for that age group.
