With Generation Z navigating the online election coverage via social media, if at all, Dr Carolyn Jackson-Brown, an ex-BBCTV news package editor herself, discusses the types of content they might find, drawing on recent academic analysis, and feedback from the next generation of adult voters, her university students at Leeds Trinity’s Centre for Journalism. What do they make of it all?
