Hi everyone,
I just took a look at the YouTube video that Jonathan is using in his Media Literacy Project…
This is such a great lesson plan!!! If you haven’t taken a look at his lesson posted on the Media Literacy page of our class wiki, please do so! It deals with the Cobert Report’s interview with Wexler and a Fox News “clip” on that interview. The lesson offers a great way to compare media pieces, and it shows how easily the news can misinform the public. This is a great lesson for high school students, who probably feel that major news station broadcasts are our reliable source for the truth about the world. Sofia
