If any of Dale Peskin’s are reliable then I fear we are left with a mass of uninformed, followers- not leaders 15 year olds who appear to be thiefs. Hmmm. Nothing about this seems new to me. We all just hope they grow up to be worthwhile human beings.

Interesting, but nothing new. In answer to mtnpub’s comment, yes it does. As the father of a 21-year-old college student (media studies major), here’s what I know, and have known for a log time:
Twitter: No
Facebook: Not any more (“too many old people in it now.”)
Movies: Yes, frequently (first read reviews online)
Music: Pay only if have to
TV: Only watch on laptop, pay to download episodes, yes.
News: Only online from favorite alt websites

This made me recall what I was doing with “media” when I was 15. Which was: reading the Washington Daily News (long since gone) that I enjoyed reading backwards because that is where the Sports section and comics were, and the tabloid format was simple to flip through. Didn’t get much into the lower-numbered pages… Radio (little iPod precursors): baseball and DJs spinning early 60′s rock. TV: sports, various crap and Steve Allen (thank god)
