Its sad when you consider the lengths that marketers will go in order to attract this demographic, yet when it comes to them actually speaking out we rarely hear anything.

Youth are not apathetic, they just need to be given a voice. Instead of complaining about this so-called indifference, the re-action should be 'what is preventing more young people from speaking out'? The answer of course is that there are barriers in the mainstream media. They just dont get enough published

Its a shame that there is only one youth media outlet in this country, that being VibeWire.
