| IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActyOtherGrp/Desc | 0 | In the future, Foothills Forum faces great opportunities and challenges as an innovative news nonprofit. Central to Foothills' coming demands -- as with all reputable journalistic entities -- is popular "news literacy", the (in)ability of content consumers, in our dizzyingly digital age, to locate, utilize, and value verifiable, independent sources of legitimate news. Foothills Forum and other outlets must cultivate readers (and viewers and listeners) who have little or no experience with "legacy" publications and resources. As the news and information landscape continues to change dramatically, and as digital becomes dominant, Foothills Forum must continuously demonstrate the standards and qualities of authoritative reporting and clearly differentiate them from misinformation and disinformation. Foothills Forum must actively assist content users -- most notably young adults and students - in developing critical thinking and careful news consumption skills. In successfully addressing news literacy, Foothills and others can better enable citizens to be well informed and to participate constructively in the civic life of their communities. |
