However, a younger demographic is more likely to check out citizen journalism on YouTube of major events and natural disasters rather than seeking out traditional TV news.
The New York Post article goes on to state that, "the study shows YouTube as a global news arena where professional and amateur video bleed together, and is made consumable in on-demand style."

Further, my news doesn't come from scripted media-unless I want to find out the latest propaganda and spin. But then that's not news at all. Nope, what I do is research sources to find my news and formulate my own opinion, therefore to say I don't permit happenings and opinions to be spoon-fed me. Period. And I prefer it that way.
