The LAMP is a non-profit organization creating a grassroots movement to reform and improve media. This is achieved through free media literacy workshops and public events for youth, parents and educators.
All of us here at the LAMP know that it is easy to get confused by all the information out there about media–what it can and can’t do, how to use it and how to figure out what’s right for you. With that in mind, we created our free LAMPlit resource guides to help you find your way and make smart choices. New guides are always in the works, so check back often to see what’s new, and please feel free to email us with your comments and suggestions.
The LAMP’s second LAMPlit resource guide introduces you to news literacy – understanding how and why news is made, and how you can take control of the news media in your life to generate your own opinions and make choices that are right for you.
