AP news consumption report released

AP has now released its full report on the anthropological study of young news consumers. It can be downloaded at www.ap.org/newmodel.pdf, and I'd recommend you do so.

Though the study was small -- fewer than 20 subjects -- there's still a lot to chew on, though some of it seems painfully obvious already to anyone who has (or has had in recent years) a teenager -- young people like their news in short bursts and have trouble concentrating on longer depth pieces.

Here's the Yahoo story as well.
