The average teenager believes they can follow six forms of media at the same time. But, what is this doing to their (and our) attention span? In this Action Network Live! journalist Johann Hari breaks down the “enormous illusion” of multitasking.
Together with Fairplay’s Executive Director Josh Golin, Johann explores the effects of our screen-obsessed culture on children and adults alike and examines how we can all pitch in to take on the forces that have stolen our attention.
