In this rain-delayed episode, Grant and Marcus explore communication infrastructure and how to safely navigate the shark-infested waters of digital and social media. Marcus unpacks some of the strategies from his media literacy class, including the importance of corroboration and transparency, plus some healthy skepticism of Canadian brisket. We discuss preserving communication in practical ways and best practices for finding accurate and reliable information online. Shout outs to SHSU Online for hosting us and to Space City Weather and the Ad Fontes Media Bias Chart, which both come up in the conversation. Also - the next Thought Leaders conference has been postponed to the fall.
