Reading


Young people are watching less TV news. A regulatory broadcasting body in the UK said this is no surprise as young people are addicted to smartphones. They prefer YouTube videos and games to TV news. A newspaper reported that the young “are more likely to get their day’s news about the world from social media or by reading graffiti in bus stations” than by watching TV. The average 16-24-year-old watches live TV news for just two minutes a day.
Research into the news-viewing habits of British people shows that youth are using social media as their news source. People are making more posts on Facebook and Twitter about the news compared to last year. The regulatory body said presenting news stories in a less complicated way might attract more young people to watch TV news. Some people suggested this would be “dumbing down content for young audiences”.
