    • Digital Media Literacy: Empathizing with the Internet

      Digital Media Literacy: Empathizing with the Internet
      Apr 4 2022
      The Internet is an amplifier. It flattens space and time to amplify information, connections, and access around the world. On the other side of the coin, it can amplify perspectives that are generally considered unhelpful in today's society, including disinformation and hate speech.

      As the Director of Research for MediaSmarts, Kara Brisson-Boivin stresses that our online environments shape our online experiences which in turn affects our capacity to develop empathy and act ethically. In our final episode, Mohit chats with Kara about how to mitigate hate speech, identify disinformation and strengthen digital media literacy in Canada.

    • Digital News: Decolonizing Journalism

      Digital News: Decolonizing Journalism
      Mar 9 2022
      Indigenous perspectives have historically been underrepresented and misrepresented in Canadian news. Journalist Emilee Gilpin says the source of the problem is a lack of accountability and diversity within Canadian newsrooms and journalism schools.

      In this episode, host Mohit Rajhans sits down with Emilee to discuss how newsrooms can decolonize Canadian news, what it means to shift from extractive storytelling to trauma-informed reporting, and how media can build trust with Indigenous communities.

    • Publishers and Platforms: Evolving Journalism’s Business Models

      Publishers and Platforms: Evolving Journalism’s Business Models
      Feb 23 2022

      Shifting focus from print to digital, newsrooms are evolving how they tell stories and reach audiences. This shift also affected their business models. Publishers’ advertising revenues have taken a steep decline as competition increased through the Internet.

      Journalists like Emma Gilchrist are trying to change the tide by changing the business model. In 2018, she co-founded The Narwhal, an independent news organization sustained through an ad-free, subscription-based business model. Under this model, their newsroom continues to expand.

      This episode, host Mohit Rajhans speaks with Emma about how to build trust online, where journalism is headed, and how The Narwhal's unique model enabled her team to take action when the RCMP illegally arrested one of their journalists.
