The media, of course, loves to make claims about the fountain of youth. Don't believe it. No one has it. But we're getting close.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I'm a writer; as soon as I imagine what would happen if I found the fountain of youth, it turns into a dystopia in my head.
With regard to the youth vote we should encourage them to partake in the process, making more use of our education system to show the role Government plays in their lives, but also utilise the youth media they relate to to better connect them to our message.
The fountain of youth is like the monkey's paw in the W. W. Jacobs story. It never ends well.
What I worry about the most is the competition for young eyeballs. We have so many other competing forms of media. I don't take any audience members for granted.
All of youth culture is packaged and sold back to us at this furious rate these days. I think it's part and parcel to this corporate encroachment on our lives in general.
I think it's a bit silly to brand the Internet as the 'downfall of youth.'
I never, ever have seen media this way. It's almost indescribable. Making up stories, refusing to run real stories. It's making themselves look like utter fools. There's no journalism, there is no media. There's pure, full-fledged advocacy here.
The mainstream media spins stories that are largely racist, violent, and irresponsible - stories that celebrate power and demonize victims, all the while camouflaging its pedagogical influence under the cheap veneer of entertainment.
The Ramones own the fountain of youth. Experiencing us is like having the fountain of youth.
Young people are so often dissed by the media.
