Email newsletters have become a familiar format for news. But this pathway to news remains somewhat niche, and even among Americans who get news from email newsletters, a majority say they don’t end up reading most of the newsletters they receive.

And unlike many other digital formats, similar shares of Americans across age groups get news from email newsletters.
