 Importance of Media Literacy
All media consumers need to possess the critical skill of

media literacy.
People who are media literate are better able to comprehend

public discourse, participate in it, and ultimately make wise

leadership election decisions.

A few key skills, such as willingness to try and the ability to

differentiate reactions, can help consumers become more

media literate.
There are many factors that can change how we interpret

media and how media affects us.

Regardless of their opinions on a subject, people who are

media literate can take a critical stance when deciphering

media messages.
When you have mastered the art of asking (and hopefully

responding ) two questions at once, it makes it easier to

move through a media-saturated world.
