Media Literacy: How to Not Get Fooled by the News - Tapa blanda

Media Literacy (Paperback)

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. Quick quiz: How do you tell the difference between news and opinion? It's harder than it used to be. On purpose. You consume more media in a day than your grandparents did in a week. Headlines are designed to make you click. Algorithms decide what you see. And most of it is trying to sell you something-a product, a viewpoint, or both. This book covers how to spot bias, evaluate sources, tell news from opinion, understand how algorithms shape your feed, recognize propaganda, and think critically about everything you read, watch, and share. You'll learn why misinformation spreads faster than facts, what "media bias" actually means, and how to be a smarter consumer of information without becoming a conspiracy theorist. **MEDIA LITERACY: How to Not Get Fooled by the News** covers: - **How News Actually Gets Made**- **The Business of News**- **Bias-It's Not What You Think**- **Sources and Sourcing**- **Opinion vs. News (The Eroding Wall)**- **The Algorithm Problem**- **Misinformation vs. Disinformation**- **Manipulation Techniques**- **Fact-Checking Like a Pro**- **Numbers, Stats, and Polls**- **Breaking News and Getting It Wrong**- **Building Your Media Diet** No tinfoil hats.
