Show Notes
We’ve got a new series over on the News Club channel called The Big Threat… It’s based on the experiences of our very own Bryce Corbett, who runs the Squiz Kids channel. He was awarded a Churchill fellowship, and he’s been travelling the world to see how media literacy is being taught in other countries to protect citizens from mis and disinformation and fake news. So in this Squiz Shortcut, we’re talking to Bryce about what he’s learned, the importance of teaching kids media literacy skills, and why mis and disinformation is the ‘big threat’ of our times.
SPONSORED: To hear the full episode, search for the Woolworths’ series called From Grassroots in your favourite podcast app.
