Join media scholar Dr. Nolan Higdon and Distinguished Director of PCIM Professor Mickey Huff in conversation about the state of our free press, hyper-partisan media, and a distracted and divided public as we approach the 2024 election next month.
Tuesday, October 15, 12:10–1:10 p.m. in Textor 103
Free light refreshments provided!
Higdon and Huff will cover tips for spotting fake news and how to fight back against mis- and disinformation as well as how we can engage in constructive dialogue with those across political divides. The focus will be on using critical media literacy skills to deconstruct propaganda and work to build bridges, not walls, with members of our community in an effort to mitigate our differences and work toward positive, productive solutions for the challenges we face now and into the future.
