According to an international study released Monday, people aged 18 to 34 are bombarded by news, facts and updates to the point where they now suffer from "newstritional disorder," according to anthropologist Robbie Blinkoff, who headed the study.

To most students, it is an unrepresentative body which annoys them yearly for funds, an annoyance which becomes more frequently ignored with each passing year of fruitless debate.
