One juror in former president Donald Trump's New York trial gets their news from Truth Social, according to a juror questionnaire highlighted on Friday by the NY Times.

From the NYT, "Where Jurors in Trump Hush-Money Trial Say They Get Their News":

The 18 New Yorkers selected to serve as jurors and alternates in the Manhattan criminal trial of former President Donald J. Trump this week were each asked the same series of 42 questions, from which lawyers hoped to divine how prospective jurors might feel about the case.

One key part of the questionnaire asked about the prospective juror's media diet, having them identify which media they consume from a list of more than a dozen news organizations and social media platforms. The questionnaire also let them mention media not on the list, or say that they don’t follow the news.

There's a few other wild card jurors on the list: one who gets their news from the Daily Mail, one from Facebook, one Fox News, one New York Post and one from X.

That's six jurors in total, each with the capacity to block a unanimous guilty verdict and trigger a hung jury.
