The Oxymoronist Media Guide

Introduction

This is an essay in several parts about media literacy, including a collection of links to a few potentially useful resources mainly on the English and French speaking web. A few other gemini sources have also been included.

The guide reflects my personal opinions and biases. No one has asked me to write it. I'm not a professional media scholar. Do your own research and draw your own conclusions!

The essay was begun in August 2021 and finished in April 2022. It's a gemini exclusive publication (so far). Among the topics discussed are:

• introduction to media literacy
• annotated links to independent media
• fake news and fact checkers
• the psychology and techniques of propaganda
• censorship and freedom of speech

Read it in any order, or from beginning to end. The following content might still be updated from time to time.

Part 1. Media literacy

Part 2. Annotated links

Part 3. Fake news

Part 4. Fact checkers

Part 5. Media trust

Part 6. Propaganda, an introduction

Part 7. Information flow

Part 10. Media ownership
