I am studying whether web technology can promote News Literacy* by enabling news consumers to educate themselves about civic issues. Using an online survey I am sourcing the opinions of those versed in how news content is presented and processed.
As a member of this mailing list my hope is that you possess an interest in this field. If you can spare approximately 3 minutes to complete this survey, located at http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/LKKDQBG, I would be most grateful and gladly forward you on the results in the new year.
Kind regards,
Jonathan

* News Literacy has been defined as "how to use critical thinking skills to judge the reliability and credibility of news reports and news sources" (The Center for News Literacy, Stony Brook University) and "[the provision of] tools to be smarter and more frequent consumers and creators of credible information across all media and platforms" (Alan Miller, The News Literacy Project)
