Youth Media Roundup

I've spent most of my day working on the ABC/Stossel piece - promoting it, etc. But it was far from the only young voter story in the news today. Here's a roundup of what else was out there (all reported accurately, as far as I can tell):

• A few days ago, Time Magazine declared that young people might actually be a deciding factor in Florida, a reddish swing state now trending blue thanks to increased youth registration, african american turnout, and movement by hispanics towards the Democratic party.
• Reuters hopped on board the youth bandwagon in this report on the USA Today/MTV/Gallup poll we blogged a few days ago.
• At the Huffington Post, newly elected College Democrats president Katie Naranjo posted a piece about the dirty tricks designed to drive down youth turnout, and a new project by the College Democrats to protect the student vote - Respect the Youth Vote.
• The LA Times does a decent job profiling efforts to use technology to help young people register to vote.
• Bloomberg News has a 30,000 foot over view of the youth vote, both this cycle and in the recent past.
• The Chicago Tribune also ran a piece about the "surging" youth vote this cycle.
