What the source says
TikTok (growing fastest from a small base, used by 20% globally for news) and Instagram (more modest growth, but a more significant presence – 26% usage for news) are the fastest growing video-led networks and they are driving much of the change together with YouTube (34% for news).
Checked: the figure 26%is stated in this passage. If it does not match, the extraction is wrong and we want to know.
