The Fix Media’s Post

Understanding the importance of information is a life skill - this provides a chance to hone it.

💡We can counter misinformation by following trusted media brands with trained journalists. We can shift our own algorithms and send a message to platform managers. 🏅Traditional media are well aware that investing in quality journalism to cover big issues may be the main way to protect their brand in an AI era. 💰We need to vote with our wallets and with our choice of where we surf online.

This panel at #IJf24 left me absolutely high with inspiration - watch it here! Changing whose voices are centred in the media, making sure people get to tell their own stories of their own experiences instead of being spoken for and to - this could not be more important. It's the only way journalism can do its job properly, the only way we can rebuild trust, and is ultimately fundamental to our industry's survival. https://lnkd.in/eSA8Z4st

Friends! Read below about the fantastic initiative being launched by The Aspen Institute: the #Planet #Media #TaskForce, seeking to develop #children's and #family #awareness and #understanding about #climatechange via scientifically sound and engaging media. For #creators, the key paragraph of the release is below: "To coincide with the launch of the Task Force and to encourage creative development of #innovative, climate media for children, the #PlanetMedia Call for Pitches, seeks to generate ideas for #shortform #content to support children ages 8-12 in understanding four essential climate principles.
