I don't think that social media users encounter less diverse news, it's that they encounter news that's specifically engineered for distribution via social media. This is not always written from a particular point on any political spectrum, but is almost always written with strong appeal to emotion, a deficiency of nuance, and a deeply dehumanizing view of the "other."
