I can absolutely see why kids go to social media for their news and not traditional sources.
It's flashy, fast, catchy, with music, or made into compelling short form stories that (depending on what you watch) can be partially, wholly, or not at all factual.
Why would teenagers want to watch some old person talk about the boring details and intricacies of current events like the war in Ukraine for 10-15 minutes when you can get a summary of the same information in 30-60 seconds on TikTok?
