Gen Z'er here, and well, it depends on the topic. TBH I don't read much news at all, unless I see it on social media I'm not gonna know about it. But I will read an article if I care enough. Sometimes I want a quick overview, and some channels/reporters can do informative yet brisk news reports.

But when it comes to educational stuff, me and my fellow high school classmates hated watching a video for homework, and would usually just read the transcript of the video instead (and with ctrl + f, you save even more time). This was funny to my xillennial teacher, as he said schools started using videos because kids hated reading textbooks. And I'm not gonna lie, I fucking hate reading textbooks in college. So we're going full circle it seems.
