bLine #2: News Media and Young People

Young people are consistently painted as a group "disengaged" from news media and politics. Despite this, young people continue to post, comment, and interact on social media about political issues internationally. In this week's episode of bLine, we discuss why young people don't engage with traditional news content and what Aotearoa's media organisations are doing to combat this. 

This week, we spoke to politics reporter at The Spinoff, Lyric Waiwiri-Smith, and video journalist at Re: News, Janhavi Gosavi. 

Happy listening!
