This is an unfair statement, because it implies a difference about GenZ versus the millennials with cnn or boomers with Fox News.
Not only is it unsubstantiated but also unnecessary.
- andirk 4y agoA few of the best in-depth coverages of the scummy US politicians during the 2020 election were done by Teen Vogue. TikTok is a pile, but I agree that juxtaposing it to Clinton Network Network, MSDNC, and Fox Snooze as if those hold any integrity at this point is laughable.

It’s always snippy, fast paced, and with a “surprising” angle. 24hr talking heads are equally low brow but it’s usually more straight forward sound bite + overt opinion layer.
