Teens and the media and how they are portrayed. Do they have a voice?

Teens today have a voice greater than they may realize. A number of youth media organizations allow the student voice creative expression on everything ranging from gang violence to latest poetry slam. Advertisers, too, recognize that teenagers are a tremendous untapped market with lots of influence on thier parents to spend and are frantically setting up website focused on the interests of high school students.

It's a huge opportunity for students to take advantage, get their voices heard with comments on blogs that can be posted on a variety of Websites.
