Kevin LaRose, #VoteBlue2026

Ugh! Anyone who says there’s no difference in ginger ale is lying through their teeth. My #MIL is here helping with the moving-in process (I’ll have more to say on that later), and when she was doing some shopping for us I asked her to pick up some Vernor’s Ginger Ale. Sadly, the store didn’t carry it, so I said Canada Dry was okay. I should have saved my money. Compared to Vernor’s Canada Dry is ginger-flavored fizzy water.

"451 degrees of #disinfo" – that was the (Bradburian) title of this year's CEDMO conference, hosted in Prag last month.

The meeting was all about #factchecking, #MIL, and #AI regulation in the post-truth era.

One of the panels was hosted by our @jospang, who discussed "Media Literacy and Factchecking: Practitioners’ Insights" with Kati Bremme, Gyula Csák, Aleksandra Monkos, Dávid Púchovský, and Joyce Zablit.

Here's a full #video of the session: youtu.be/3tZzoqu8B6s?si=Xq8SHf

Here's an interesting paper recently published by the JMLE.

Beyond the headlines: Media and Information Literacy (#MIL) in times of conflict

"In this article, we focus on disparity in media coverage and make the point that media and information literacy provide a valuable set of lenses from which to view a cluster of news and social media accounts taken from the government, mainstream media, alternative media, and the DIY mediasphere (...)."

DigitalCommons@URIBeyond the headlines: Media and Information Literacy (MIL) in times of conflictThe wars of the 21st century are not the first media wars, and many tropes and schema have long histories, particularly propaganda and the othering of a purported enemy. What is new today is that although mass media remains a central and hegemonic source of insight and perspective, citizen journalism, social media, spreadable media, and surveillant, data-driven media have grown in significance at an exponential level, adding a layer of complexity. In this article, we focus on disparity in media coverage and make the point that media and information literacy provide a valuable set of lenses from which to view a cluster of news and social media accounts taken from the government, mainstream media, alternative media, and the DIY mediasphere of the social media. It centers on two conflicts that receive little media exposure -the Nagorno-Karabash conflict between Armenia and Azerbaijan and the internal Anglo-Francophone conflict in Cameroon. It also offers examples of classroom activities that could be adapted and modified to most educational settings.
