This Media Buddhi newsletter is 10 issues old today, and I want to take a pause to see if I’m doing what I said I’d do. And to check if I’m headed in the right direction.
Happy Birthday! Some really fundamental principles necessary for today's living. Love these articles. You have earned my trust and look forward to reading them.
I also think it's important that children today learn about these principles and apply them too. While I share some of these with my 14 year old, could the writing be made relevant to kids?
Thanks Vipin for the vote of confidence! You know, I do think a lot of this is good for children. Increasingly my work as a journalist is pitched towards helping people navigate this puzzling and crazy world of information. Experts say that children as young as 8 should start being educated in 'media literacy'. There is definitely something on the cards for 14 year olds. Will let you know when. In fact, it will be even better if 14-year-olds volunteer to teach their friends!
A little late to wish you on this milestone, but just a note to say how reassuring it is to see that you’re approaching this beastly problem of disinformation with measured clarity and sanity, and immeasurable courage. Media Buddhi has all my support and best wishes!
