...study, commissioned by the Associated Press and carried out by the Baltimore-based Context-Based Research Group, tracked news consumption by young adults in Houston, Silicon Valley, Philadelphia, Kansas City, Brighton, U.K. and Hyderabad, India. Researchers found that a near-constant barrage of facts and updates makes it harder for younger people to access in-depth stories than it appears to be for older generations.

Cristina's confrontational style brooks no opposition. The President and her husband rarely give interviews and discourage their officials from speaking to the press. Meanwhile, the President ditched her star economy minister, Martin Lousteau, a month ago after he put forward a 13-point plan to reduce public spending and discourage consumption to put a damper on prices. That plan ran counter to the combination of high growth rates and price caps favored by Fernandez and Kirchner...
