With last week's State of the Nation Address (SONA) dominating social media, we wanted to find out whether the average South African watched President Zuma's address live on TV as well as all the reaction on social media.

Overall the response was 'yes', with respondents stating they watched both on TV and through social media, with more of the youth (aged 18 to 34) selecting this option.

You can browse the results in the following SlideShare, which shows the 300 targeted responses, with additional quota control of sample according to age group, gender and province summary, in order to be nationally representative of the general South African adult online population:
