@holden I've been asked repeatedly "with the current environment" (aka we need media literacy now more than ever) if I'd want to revive @thelamp and my response is always "With what $$$?" The organization had to close because there is no funding for media literacy.
Great demonstration of #medialiteracy@thelamp teaches our students (Ss). In EVERY interview, whether it is coverage of press conf. or a one-on-one, the interviewee NEVER has final cut approval. We teach all our Ss: be mindful of what you say - it can ALL be taken out of context.
A dear friend of ours, @mcrispinmiller, needs help with his medical matters. He's a stalwart for media literacy and was our 5th Anniversary Luminatory! Please help: https://t.co/kAbrsJKfy0
It's been a helluva journey - 12+ years! With a little heaviness, I'm publicly sharing that I'm walking away from @thelamp. Please let me know if you have any questions.
There's a complicated and mediated relationship b/w info & bldg new civic actors. We want to work with #newsliteracy & #medialiteracy fields to uncover new ways that learning about factchecking and accuracy can cxt to broadening, diversifying who is engaged in the US #knightcomm

https://t.co/ws1ODMf4Sd PR and framing. Fascinated with all the reporting and social media sharing/commentary around this event and follow-up, such as the clearly PR- coached morning talk show interview. It’s a great example of how news has always been “faked.” #newsisaverb
The 2019 Presidential #SOTU may not happen, but we're focused on what TEENS think about the state of the union and their communities. Teen voices are critical to the future of this country, and we're excited to join their conversation. https://t.co/yniLYoNaya
Youth political engagement nonprofit @22MillionVotes is looking for people to host "action parties" in their communities for #SOTU (whatever form it happens to take). Learn more here... https://t.co/dodyvg1vyy
