Delivering news with humour makes young adults more likely to remember, share ANI | Updated: Jan 08, 2021 15:04 IST
Washington [US], January 8 (ANI): New research suggests that humour may help keep people informed about politics and other current issues.
A study from the Annenberg School for Communication at the University of Pennsylvania and the School of Communication at Ohio State University found that, when compared to non-humorous news clips, viewers are not only more likely to share humorously presented news but are also more likely to remember the content from these segments. For democracy to work, it is really important for people to engage with news and politics and to be informed about public affairs, said senior author Emily Falk, Professor of Communication, Psychology, and Marketing at Annenberg.
An individual who participated in the protest inside the Capitol building on Wednesday has been identified. John Earle Sullivan is a Black Lives Matter activist from Sandy, Utah.

A little bit of humour never harmed anyone. Especially the memes that auto-correct, spell check or wrong grammar lends itself to. Precisely what happened on Twitter, when the picture credit Via Getty in many of the pictures got mistaken for a rioter s name.
While the Twitter had a field day, we wonder what Getty has to say about the whole thing? Neither the credit nor the image that Getty was looking for, right. The post that started it all read like this, Via Getty, one the rioters steals a podium from the Capitol. Ouch! What kind of a person is Via Getty?
