   A Study Finds That Web Users Are More Tolerant Than Non-Users

   By JEFFREY R. YOUNG



   Internet users are more tolerant of diverse viewpoints than
   those who do not venture into cyberspace, according to data
   from an extensive survey of American public opinion.

   The information was collected as part of the 2000 General
   Social Survey. The survey, which is commonly used by social
   scientists, has been conducted every one or two years since
   1974 by the University of Chicago's National Opinion Research
   Center.
