Q PART 1: Younger People Actually Prefer Reading the News to Watching It According to the article "Pew: younger people actually prefer reading the news to watching it (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site." (Sarah Perez, 2016), Pew Research Center found that younger people are actually more interested in reading the news, and it’s actually the older generations who prefers watching the news instead of reading. (Please read the article so that you know why this is.) "When Pew asked U.S. consumers aged 18 to 29 whether they prefer to watch, listen or read the news, 42 percent responded 'read' versus 38 percent who 'watch,' and just 19 percent who would rather 'listen.'" If this is the case, do you think that the newspaper industry could attract younger generations back to print newspapers in the future? How do you think they could do it? Or do you think print newspapers will eventually be a medium of the past? Find one other source to support your argument. Cite your source and the Perez source with APA style in-text citations. Cite ONE current source (other than Wikipedia) (sources 2015-present) in your response. Also, at the end of your response leave an APA style reference list (titled "References") of your sources.Review the APA Style guidelines under Home. Keep in mind that many major city print newspapers, some over 100 years old, have shut down, like the Cincinnati Post, Kentucky Post, and Rocky Mountain News.
