Media Literacy Week, Oct. 25-29, an opportunity to remind readers about vetting information sources

Media Literacy Week is coming up next week, Oct. 25-29. With misinformation rife on social media, it's the perfect opportunity for editors to remind readers about the importance of vetting sources.

The observance is hosted by the National Association for Media Literacy Education. It differs from National News Literacy Week in January.

This year's theme celebrates one of the five components of media literacy’s definition each day: Access, Analyze, Evaluate, Create, and Act. Click here for more information.
