How are teens portrayed in the media? In the news media, not enough. We in the media don't write enough about what teens think, what they're interested in, what worries them in the world, and what they're doing with their time. I see more interesting things about the passions and pasttimes of young people by looking at some of the interesting videos on you tube. Like, who knew about cupstacking?



Or liquiding?


Or expressive guitar?


Or rock violin?



Now let's go to YouTube and see what Doru likes on Youtube!

the teens are taking their lives and posting them on youtube...meaning they are not going to wait around to see if regular bona fide journalists portray them in the proper light. They are there to be seen for real, in a way that is relevant to them...because obviously we're irelevant to them.
