Cyberjournalist reports the launch Know the News from of LinkTV. It’s a set of free web-based tools for news literacy that focus on international television news. The project is currently being beta tested by communications and journalism classes at the University of Texas, Austin; American University in Washington DC; and students from the Salzburg Academy on Media and Global Change based in Salzburg, Austria.  Students create their own news stories by editing video from a  variety of American and international television news reports plus their own news-talk program. It’s not mojo, but it’s interesting. Have been travelling in places without Internet access. That’s my only excuse for slow updates, apart from too many other things to do.
