I think the reason why we see so many comparison/contrast articles that focus on millennials is because it's the first generation that never knew a world without the internet. Prior to that, everybody got their global awareness from TV, radio, newspapers, magazines, church etc.

Millennials get their information differently (maybe not 100% differently, but as a whole they don't appear to be nearly as focused on legacy media), and it is interesting to analyze the many ways that pans out.

That's not entirely true of Millenials. I didn't have home internet until I was 14, so I still had to get all my entertainment from my imagination and from playing outdoors when I was younger.

We only had two computers in our entire school that had internet connection and it was entirely reserved for teacher resources, so they were not accessible to students in any way. Granted, not all Millenials have the same experiences as I do. Although I would say that's probably entirely true of those who are 21 and younger (and I think were the actual comparisons are being drawn). What do they call them again? Gen Z?

At the end of the day though each generation will have their kinda "it" bands and TV shows though, and it's super cool to see where how different those popular shows or musicians are.
