Through discussion prompts, writing exercises, key terms, and links, readers are provided with a framework from which to critically consume and create media in their everyday lives. This new edition includes updates covering privacy aspects of AI, VR and the metaverse, and a new chapter on digital audiences, gaming, and the creative and often unpaid labor of social media and influencers.

Concise, creative and curated, this book highlights the cultural, political and economic dynamics of media in contemporary society, and how consumers can mindfully navigate their daily media use.
