TikTok memes aren’t the only way that teens are rethinking the news: Gen Z is creating their own news outlets on social media. Teen-run accounts like @dailydoseofwokeness share world events in an “easy, accessible” way, and often from a different perspective than mainstream outlets. Instagram stories engage followers with polls, and opinions are discussed in the comment sections. According to YPulse’s research, social media and YouTube are the top news sources for 13-18-year-olds. (Teen Vogue)
