Survey says: cleantech reporters not bullish about U.S. achieving energy independence

Our parent company, Brodeur Partners, announced the results of a new survey with clean energy and environmental reporters regarding their industry outlook and use of social media.

 The key takeaways:

• Journalists are skeptical about whether the United States can significantly decrease its dependence on fossil fuel.
• Academic institutions and government bodies are the most trusted sources of information on cutting-edge clean energy technologies. Over 90% of journalists view these as credible news sources.
• Most are influenced by blogs and spend more than an hour each day reading them.
