The agendas of online and offline media were found to be correlated and Intermedia agenda-setting across various media systems and platforms.

The new agenda for agenda-setting research comprises the theoretical adjustments and refinements of the original paradigm as well as the development of new measures and new data analysis techniques. The rising popularity of the Internet and online social media, people have become more independent from traditional news media. Traditional media companies are also adapting some of these new online platforms and social media.
