Most of the article on Bashing Youth and Wild In Deceit was reporting statistics from media sources on problems being caused my adolescents in our society. The media focuses on what the youth in our society are doing wrong, whether it be STDs, violence, and unplanned pregnancies. The media isn't seperating adult behavior from youth behavior. These articles that are reporting these youth myths do suggest how media responsibility could halt today's political assault on youth and heal spreading among the generational hostility.
Journalists continue to add fuel to the fire with their articles on youth agression. Statistics seem to be reported on the rise with violence among youth. Their articles mask the real issues. The articles only publicize the tough measures that will be taken to improve youht agression, such as prison time for younger ages, instead of programs that are designed to help these youth. Articles will talk about how to "treat" a problem, instead of the facts, such as most of the youth that are "causing" poverty were already born into poverty.
