Description

Critical thinking is the cornerstone of democracy. When we look behind the making and distributing of media--tv, newspapers, blogs, posters, radio--we can become more informed citizens and smarter consumers. CCTV's monthly series invites thoughtful people to look at the essential role media plays in our bit and little decisions. Candy Page, Writer-Burlington Free Press (Burlington, Vermont), Ken Picard, Writer- Seven Days (Local Vermont Paper), Craig Chevier, VP of ACMEVT, Champlain College Professor of Socially Responsible Media and Will Liberty, Student of Media Works for YOUth Program at Channel 17
