Attention spans. News content these days are moving to video I stead of text to better grab your attention. When everything is really engaging, you have to be more engaging than that to get seen.
As someone who's not an auditory/visual learner I feel personally attacked by this. I skipped class and stayed home and read the book/notes for a reason.
I agree. I much prefer text stuff. It's hard deny the shift though. Looking at TikTok as an extreme example, a whole generation is getting their news from someone doing a dance while two other videos play of cutting playdough. I'm not saying it's wrong, but I do think it's really hurting our ability as a species to exist without attention hacking.
If you've managed to exist outside of that band of information exchange, I commend you.
