Boomers are news-illiterate couch vegetables stuck in front of their yelling, ad-saturated TVs

The chart they should have included with the article is this one - Young adults are less enthusiastic about news , but they are more likely to get news online
Follow news all or most of the time:

  • 18-29 - 27%
  • 30-49 - 46%
  • 50-64 - 61%
  • 65+ - 77%

I’m feeling uneasy about young adults choosing not to follow news. If they’re only getting current event information from social media, they’re living in a place with very skewed vision.
