Generation Wired: Young People in Media
Manage episode 378292741 series 3428912
In this compelling episode with our guests Lexi Williams and Isiah Jones co-hosts of Young People Takeover on News in Motion, we dive into the world of Generation Wired and explore how growing up in the digital age has fundamentally shaped their perspectives on media and its broader societal impact. Gail asked thought-provoking questions that probe the essence of their media experiences and how these experiences inform their daily lives.
One of the central themes we explore is the overwhelming abundance of information available online. We delve into the strategies and approaches our young guests employ to navigate the intricate landscape of the internet, balancing the need to stay informed with the constant threat of misinformation. Their insights offer valuable guidance for anyone seeking to maintain a healthy online media diet.
Furthermore, we engage in a candid discussion about representation and diversity in mainstream media. Young adults share their perspectives on the current state of media, shedding light on whether they believe there is adequate representation of different communities and identities. We delve into why this diversity is important, not just for those it directly represents, but for society as a whole. This episode promises to be an eye-opening exploration of how the digital age is shaping the future of media and its impact on the next generation. Join us as we navigate the complexities of media consumption, diversity, and its role in contemporary society with the voices of Generation Wired.
