Confirmed: Old People Hate Youths

German researchers have found that old people enjoy reading news reports that cast young people in a negative light.

The researchers responsible for the study posited that the tendency of old people to react positively to news stories portraying young people negatively was tied to generational self-esteem issues.
   The study’s findings have been widely reported around the globe, but for unknown reasons were not reported in the Otago Daily Times.
