The onslaught of technology during gen-x and millennials lives has robbed a lot of them of critical thinking and social skills. So we skipped a couple of generations. We've made people who are fk-ed up for altogether new reasons. Not the first time no doubt.
If their kids aren't born with wires sticking out of them, who knows, maybe we'll self-correct.

Millennials are not the ones who are watching Fox News. Average age of a Fox viewer according to Nielson is 68. Is there some new study out showing that millennials are not as intellegent as boomers or is this personal opinion stuff?

I think there is a level beyond "biased".

If you are publishing an article in a manner that suggests that completely unsubstantiated information (not "leaks", not "unidentified sources"... literally opinion) is a fact, you are no longer just putting a biased slant on news.

This article, is not "biased". It is false. Fox news is publishing it for consumption as if it were a fact. That would make them "fake news" in my opinion.

Was talking about kids really. Not Fox News viewers. Personally I think kids are lazy thinkers. As they should be in their world where facts and info are an easy click away.
I don't think boomers are smarter. Quick look around cbid will tell ya that.
Don't remember how or why but I veered off talking about kids.

Great article about how stupid many grownups are getting and why. Worth the read imo.
