    The new catch phrase that's being put out there-- "Media Literacy." The same folks who wanted to "curate" your news, then label "fake news," now want to teach you & colleges "media literacy." But from what I can tell, it's all the same goal. 1/2

        It is a bunch of English majors reshaping society one noun/adjective/adverb at a time with their own personal opinion thrown in. Facts?

        They aren't news - they are shills for their corporate agendas; Comcast, Disney, Time-Warner.

        The word "conversation" is overused and no longer valid. "Empathy"... I almost vomit when someone says " at the end f the day" ...

        It's a sanitized term for editorializing.

        This is dumb. Media Literacy is not a new thing. Finding credible sources is media literacy. Wikipedia, blogs and the Rebel aren't credible
