Media vs. Teens

I was browsing the internet, looking for articles related to teens in media and I came across a very interesting article. This article dates back to the Columbine shootings, but it's relevance still holds true. Why is it that now, so many years later, the media is still following the same twisted protocol? Will this always be the way teens are portrayed in the media?
Please follow the link and read the article. It's seriously interesting.
