Mtv Generation?

1. Your age group has been referred to as the "MTV Generation," which carries a negative connotation of teen-agers that have little to no interest in anything, and even if you did, your attention span is grossly limited. Is this true? Yes, this is true because teenagers nowadays spend their time on useless stuff such as watching reality shows that do not have a point to it and playing video games that will not get you anywhere. The attention span of a teenager is limited. If there is not interest in a subject the teenager blocks their brain out of trying to learn about it and when they try the attention is very limited.
2. Where do you get your news? I'm not going to lie. I rarely watch the news. I think the only news I watch once in a while is E! News which only talks about celebrity events as opposed to current events. However, every morning I do listen to the radio where News Channel 5 talks about the headlines; so, I learn some news every morning.
3. If a news article is accompanied by a photograph, do you read the article or rely totally on the visual? It depends on what I feel like. Sometimes the picture will be so intriguing that I want to know more about the story and I will read it. Other times, however, the picture is enough for me.
4. Is it impossible for a "complicated message to be relayed in a 10-second sound bite" that the news media uses to get the message across? Is this possible? What are the advantages of using photographs? What are the disadvantages? It is not impossible however it will be less strong because not all of the information about the story will be said and therefore people will not always know the importance of a story. The advantage of using photographs is that they tell a story much faster than having the person read an article. The disadvantages, however, are that the story can be misinterpreted by the picture, the individual will not learn enough about the story only the main thing, and that the person viewing the picture will not have enough knowledge about the current event.
