To get the most out of our news diet in America, it is important to understand the industry that shapes the political coverage we consume. This lecture will discuss the historical underpinnings that have created the current media environment in the U.S. and explain why political news is reported in specific formats. Attendees will get a crash course in media literacy that will give them the tools to organize the plethora of political information that overwhelms the public during election season. Presented by Keith Zukas, associate professor, Communication.
