Media literacy does not include _____.

Media literacy does not include _____.

• A. Bloggers
• B. Stakeholders
• C. Journalists
• D. Influencers

Answer: (B)

Media literacy centers on understanding how media messages are created, distributed, and understood, and on evaluating the sources behind those messages. Journalists, bloggers, and influencers are all common types of media producers or disseminators you study in media literacy because they shape the content and the way it reaches audiences. Recognizing their methods, biases, platforms, and audiences helps someone critically assess information. Stakeholders, while important in organizational contexts as groups with an interest in outcomes, aren’t typically considered a category of media producers or actors you analyze in media-literacy education. So the item that doesn’t fit as part of media-literacy scope is stakeholders.
