Description
Critical thinking is the cornerstone of democracy. When we look behind the making and distributing of media--tv, newspapers, blogs, posters, radio--we can become more informed citizens and smarter consumers. CCTV's monthly series invites thoughtful people to look at the essential role media plays in our bit and little decisions.
