A recent Pew Research Forum study titled “Understanding the Participatory News Customer“, shows that many Americans view religion and spirituality is an underreported area in the news. According to the report:

“41% of Americans say there is not enough coverage of religious and spiritual issues. Women (44%) are more likely than men (37%) to seek more coverage of this area; young adults ages 18-29 (49%) are more likely than those over age 50 (35%) to say this; and bloggers (50%) are more likely than non-bloggers (40%) to say this.  Race/ethnicity is also a factor, with African-Americans (57%) significantly more likely than both whites (38%) and Hispanics (43%) to say they would like to see more coverage of religion and spirituality.”

What do you think? Too much? Not enough? Two biased in one direction or another? Would love to hear from you…
