Did you grow up reading the newspaper? I’m guessing you didn’t since you didn’t answer “yes” and based on a few other things you’ve posted that give clues to your age. Of course, since you didn’t answer I don’t know and my guess could be wrong.

I'm 35, and yes I grew up reading the newspaper, watching news on TV, and now social media. I was also born in Poland, so don't assume I was raised like an American, despite growing up in the U.S. I'm fluent in both languages, travel back home whenever I can, and have studied in Krakow. That said, I've also visited 20 countries. Europeans are very skeptical of their governments - Generally what is said, or spoken by the government is usually associated with ulterior motives. Pessimism runs deep, past the friendly facades. Meanwhile, Americans have never experienced a war on their land, so they live in lala land where everything is great.

Yes, we know that media / journalism (whatever part of that exists that) today is not what it used to be. The reason I posted a photo of a printing press is because thats what media was during the first one third of the twentieth century, including magazines, and the radio.
