New Jersey mandates media literacy for K-12 students
As misinformation and conspiracy theories continue to proliferate online, it’s not enough that social media platforms attempt to prevent misleading content. They may never stop the deluge of disinformation, so experts have also started calling for more media literacy , teaching people how to critically assess the information they’re exposed to. According to one recent survey , just 38% of people said they learned how to analyze media messaging in high school. That percentage is set to change for students in New Jersey who will now be required to learn media-literacy skills under new legislation signed this week by Governor Phil Murphy. The bill requires that the New Jersey Department of Education develop standards in “information literacy” for K-12 students, with the goal of helping kids find, evaluate, and “effectively use” information, learn critical-thinking skills, and differentiate between facts and opinions, and primary and secondary sources. “Our … [Read more...] about New Jersey mandates media literacy for K-12 students
New York City FC’s Home Comforts In The Bronx And Queens
Share to Twitter Share to Linkedin New York City FC made a stuttering start to the 2023 Major League Soccer season, losing its opening game 2-0 to Nashville and drawing 1-1 with Chicago Fire. The MLS schedule handed head coach Nick Cushing and his team two away games to kick off the new season, travelling first to Tennessee and then to Illinois, returning to New York with just one point. The home opener against Inter Miami was more encouraging, and that’s perhaps no surprise given NYCFC regularly has one of the best home records in the league. Despite worries about the departure of many key players in the past year, including the spine of the team from goalkeeper Sean Johnson to goalscorer Taty Castellanos, there was something more familiar about the team’s play once it was back in the Bronx. NYCFC created a few chances against Inter Miami, with an expected goals score of 1.45 - 0.30 in its favor, indicating the 1-0 win was deserved. The low … [Read more...] about New York City FC’s Home Comforts In The Bronx And Queens

Avoid prison by paying up? Judge’s ire in Steve Bachar case spotlights plea deals contingent on money upfront
When Denver District Court Judge Eric Johnson rejected a plea agreement in a white-collar crime case last week, he gave a very specific reason for throwing out the deal. “Justice in this society cannot be seen as buying oneself out of a felony conviction,” the judge told defendant Steve Bachar, who’d accepted an offer from the Denver District Attorney’s Office that would have allowed him to avoid jail time and have a felony theft conviction wiped from his record if he pleaded guilty and met certain conditions, including paying $174,000 upfront to the victim in the case. Johnson called the deal “contrary to justice” during the hearing Friday and noted that people have gone to prison for stealing much less money. His refusal to accept the deal put a spotlight on plea bargains in which prosecutors require defendants to pay upfront restitution as part of the agreement, a practice seen on occasion in Colorado’s courts. Critics like Johnson say the deals unfairly give wealthy … [Read more...] about Avoid prison by paying up? Judge’s ire in Steve Bachar case spotlights plea deals contingent on money upfront
Manhattan D.A. Calls House GOP’s Investigation Of Trump Criminal Probe ‘Unlawful’
Share to Twitter Share to Linkedin Topline Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg pushed back Thursday against demands from top House GOP leaders to testify about his investigation into former President Donald Trump, calling their request an “unprecedented inquiry” into a local prosecution and questioning its legislative purpose, as the Trump criminal probe appears to be wrapping up. Key Facts Bragg called the letter, written earlier this week by Reps. Jim Jordan (R-Ohio), James Comer (R-Ky.) and Bryan Steil (R-Wis.), an “unlawful incursion into New York’s sovereignty” and said that Congress was not the “appropriate branch” to review a pending criminal case. The Manhattan district attorney suggested the inquiry came at the request of Trump’s lawyers, who Bragg said urged House GOP members to intervene, and noted it “only came after Donald Trump created a false impression that he would be arrested” on Tuesday. Bragg offered to meet with … [Read more...] about Manhattan D.A. Calls House GOP’s Investigation Of Trump Criminal Probe ‘Unlawful’

Share to Twitter Share to Linkedin By Jordan Langs, Program and Development Associate, Moms Helping Moms Foundation Imagine if toilet paper was not provided in school – a place you spend eight hours a day, five days a week, ten months a year, for about twelve years as a child.
