This article is about the concept of teaching young kids how to be "media literate." This article believes that it is very important for the kids to learn about media because it is important to know how to use media and analyze media. In the 21st century media is the most used resource in the world. This article believes that media is the best way to bring news into your home and be able to comprehend what is going on in the outside world. To be able to read media and analyze it is probably the most important skill in today's environment and without it you would not be able to fetch news from the web and have the freedom and choice to surf the web and be part of the big overall community. In my opinion all kids should be taught media literacy so they can thrive in the open world.

I think that the article I have chosen because it explains the fair use of media literacy through its legalities, principles, and heard of myths. They create five key principles that explain what the true legal use of media literacy should be. The writers of this document even support their words with sections on the passage entitled "What This Is" and "What This Isn't". This document proposes possible arguments that could pass as media literacy and then shuts them down describing how they are improper understandings of media literacy. The writers do their best to show the true form of "copyright education". This article mainly describes the legal aspects of fair use of media literacy.
