June 29, 2010 by Amy Jussel 3 Comments

June 29, 2010 As a kids' health advocate (inside and out) I’ve been covering the "HUGE" conversation pertaining to media’s responsibility and accountability in how the portrayal of being overweight in our appearance-obsessed culture is handled. (Huge: Part One, Part Two) Now it’s time to weigh in on the policy piece. (I'm not referring to RWJF's annual "F as in Fat" … [Read more...]

Commodification of Kids: The Backlash Has Begun

April 16, 2010 by Amy Jussel 17 Comments

April 16, 2010 About a year ago, TruthOut featured a poignant article called "Commodifying Kids, The Forgotten Crisis" by academic Henry A. Giroux, and though I read it with lots of head bobbing agreement on the tipping point of toxicity, I have to strongly DISagree with the "forgotten" notion. This issue is not the LEAST bit forgotten...it's on fire, baby and it's gaining … [Read more...]

New Years Media Messages: Packaging Boyhood Meets The Hangover

December 29, 2009 by Amy Jussel 9 Comments

Dec. 29, 2009 Last night I watched ‘The Hangover’ rated R, which I’d heard described by several YOUNG teens (meaning unable to buy a ticket unless sneaking in via diff. multiplex theater) as ‘hilarious,' and ‘over the top’ and wanted to see where the kid appeal was coming from and try to ‘relate’ to why this movie was a ‘favorite’ on many a Facebook page. I'm not here to … [Read more...]

Librarians, are you preparing the people in your community to recognize & resist the many forms of #Election2024 propaganda they will encounter, including deepfakes, AI chatbots, and more? https://www.ala.org/tools/sites/ala.org.tools/files/content/Media-Lit_Arch_Prog-Guide.pdf
