why is media literacy important to democracy?<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n

With widespread and instantaneous access to information like humanity has never seen before, combined with our own personal publishing houses living in our pockets, it is imperative now more than ever before that we get serious about media literacy as a means to safeguard democracy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
