Key Points:
– News avatars have become increasingly popular on social media platforms.
– Experts predict that this trend will continue to grow as technology becomes more accessible.
– These avatars often deliver news in a partisan and pejorative manner, adding a humorous twist.
– In a recent example, a news presenter in Mandarin used an extended metaphor to criticize Taiwan’s outgoing president, Tsai Ing-wen.

Final Thoughts:
As technology advances, it is not surprising to see the proliferation of news avatars on social media. These avatars add a unique and entertaining element to news delivery, sometimes incorporating humor and satire. However, it is important to remember that news avatars should be taken with a grain of salt, as their primary goal is often to entertain rather than provide unbiased reporting. While their rise in popularity is a testament to the evolving landscape of news consumption, it is crucial for viewers to exercise critical thinking and seek out reliable sources for accurate information.
