Hold the front page! Young people don't read the news
Research in the United States claims to have discovered the astounding news that the country's teenagers and young adults don't read the news. The tone of the New York Times article which reveals the study's findings appears to be surprised at this phenomenon. Why?

Though their interest in news was patchy in teenage and early adult years, they tended to buy papers regularly once they married and set up home.
