Psst. It's not just media literacy. Literacy as whole is declining. That's an even bigger issue.

IDK if literacy is the real problem. Many ppl don't care about the distinctions between 'news' and 'analysis'.
-
They care about their point of view being reinforced or attacked. The Feed + shift to algorithmically curated content encourages this.
-
People don't want to be skeptical. They don't want to look closely at what they're sharing. And social platforms encourage shallowness.
-
If we focus on this as a problem of 'literacy' we talk down to the audience.... calling them stupid, reinforcing media elitism narrative

You should be running educational segments about Russian propoganda techniques and dictator tactics daily. You don't. You sell conflict

Idk if that's it. I think conservative media forced mainstream media to both sides so hard to stay competitive the truth became meaningless

If CNN wanted to help the situation, it'd run a series with J-School academics teaching people about the media. I'm free....
