What do media mean to youth? What do youth want from media?

media can be anything with a voice, in simpler terms. myspace and youtube has become an output for information to be spread, so media is all around us, even more so.

media is so much, from the news on tv, the comedic television, magazines, internet etc.

what does media mean to youth? well, has it taken an official meaning on by them? i dont think so, but, they are aware as they grow older, as to what goes on, and learn to listen to both sides of stories in the coming day and age, and more and more worldwide events are placed in their thoughts, eg, war in Iraq, global warming etc.

what do youth want from media? i don't think the younger generation has really thought about what they want to hear, and how they like to hear it. but issues that would concern them, the truth in an interesting form, so that the news doesn't apply to the older generations, but the young ones as well. The information received, really just has to be presented well, and in terms and words that can be understood better.

im writing what ive said from my point of view, as im still a youngin.

Aloo brother...hehehe..so this is what you expect from the media ah? It's really good to know the truth but sometimes the truths that are revealed can create some commotion to people...and that is why in M'sia, the government protects its mass media..anyways...I, too , want to know the truth because the truth will set us free ya?! Anyways, I would still prefer if the mass media is more transparent aka...more truthful to the people! :)
