In recent years, claims of \u201cfake news,\u201d bias and misinformation have become rampant, with many of us wanting to stay informed but feeling overwhelmed, and even saturated, by the 24-hour news cycle. How do we move beyond charges of \u201cfake news\u201d to determine the reliability of news content? How do we ethically consume and share information? Being an informed 21st- century citizen requires a thoughtful, nuanced approach to the media.<\/p>\n
