I think more Americans need to go directly to the source to get their information.

Go directly to the White House and read what it has to say.

Also be aware of News Frames and the importance of them coupled with fact-checking.

@Museek How to get them to do this? Leave their comfortable ignorance bubble?

@gemswinc Great question..

I think media literacy workshops that promote fact checking tools in local communities and online.

Linking to those sources when we are online.. promoting those who do .. linking to specifics from CSPAN and other official comminications with summaries..

asking media outlets to do this..

those are some ways.. Remembering Media outlets work for shareholders..

@Museek The link didn't work for me, so sorry if I missed something there.

@gemswinc @Museek I go to the whitehouse *dot* gov site. Hit the briefing room or any article on the front page. Then choose All on the right side of links and go through the pages at your convenience!

Also recommended for uninterrupted video: C-SPAN.

@JazzCrafter @Museek @gemswinc I don’t really watch TV. I process things better if I can slowly read over things. I also feel better with transcripts because I feel like information isn’t cut out giving a different impression of what is said.
