Andrew Breitbart Issues Wake Up Call To The Voice of Gen Y

New media publisher and author, Andrew Breitbart, offers opinion, perspective, and advice to Gen Y TV correspondent, Britt Hysen in the latest Discover Your Voice episode.

In complicated times, when even the grown ups can't get it right, Gen Y TV correspondent, Britt Hysen, sat down with new media publisher and New York Times Bestselling author, Andrew Breitbart (Righteous Indignation: Excuse me while I save the world!) to gain insight into the man behind BigGovernment.com, the Internet media outlet best known for breaking the ACORN and Anthony Weiner scandals. Covering topics from new media opportunities to the current political landscape, Breitbart addresses each topic with a heavy dose of reality as it applies to Gen Y TV viewers, specifically young adults 22-30. "Gen Y is very much [in trouble]!", Breitbart said with conviction [to Hysen], "when it comes to the raw economics of what my generation and the baby boomers have handed to you." Regarding the future of Generation Y in new media, he took a more positive, but cautious position, "There are so many opportunities out there if media continues to be free, and if the government doesn't try to impede and say we're going to put limitations on you." Breitbart stressed the innate compatibilities between young adults and new media, and encouraged anyone with a digital camera to report stories from their community that the mainstream media isn't covering.

Hysen, often referred to as The Voice of Gen Y, delivered her video interview in a style geared toward the MTV crowd, having used both black and white and color video clips, fast-paced editing with an abundance of strategically placed jump cuts, and music with a driving rhythm that accurately captured the mood of the conversation. Following a lengthy dialogue with Breitbart in the hot seat, she collected one provocative statement after the next in a quick round of word association. Hysen covered a spectrum of key figures and issues; and Breitbart delivered decisive answers in rapid response.
