"You're coming of age in a 24/7 media environment that bombards us with all kinds of content and exposes us to all kinds of arguments, some of which don't always rank that high on the truth meter," he told the students.

So all of this is not only putting pressure on you; it's putting new pressure on our country and on our democracy."
