Although most respondents routinely visited their preferred news sites directly, recommendations from their social network also played an important role in helping them find salient news. We analyzed the factors that affected which recommendations were read and why, and also discuss participants’ expectations on the behavior of the receivers of the recommendations. The person recommending and the means of recommending affect what gets read. In contrast with previous studies, we found that the role of email as a recommendation tool is decreasing as the use of social media is becoming more common. However, personally targeted recommendations still have a better chance of being influential than recommendations made to the public at large. %G English %Z TC 13 %2 https://inria.hal.science/hal-01591819/document %2 https://inria.hal.science/hal-01591819/file/978-3-642-23765-2_12_Chapter.pdf %L hal-01591819 %U https://inria.hal.science/hal-01591819 %~ IFIP-LNCS %~ IFIP %~ IFIP-AICT %~ IFIP-TC13 %~ IFIP-INTERACT %~ IFIP-LNCS-6948
