Résumé
Key Selling Points Kids are spending more time on the internet and social media, where they may be exposed to fake news, clickbait, misinformation and disinformation. It's important for them to learn how to become critical news consumers. The media… industry is at a critical juncture. After years of being battered by the internet and social media, new business models are starting to emerge. But much damage has been done and trust in the media has dropped to an all-time low. Breaking News is full of tips on how kids can get involved in the media industry and share their thoughts, including writing letters to the editor, taking journalism classes, joining the school paper, getting a paper route and even starting their own media outlet. The book includes stories from journalists, including kids, that will inspire readers to get involved in the industry. The author is an award-winning journalist who worked for daily newspapers, TV news programs and independent online publications across Canada.
