OLLI of Greater Birmingham presents Understanding Media Options with Chris Roberts, Ph.D. Associate Professor, Graduate Coordinator, Department of Journalism and Creative Media, U.A.

October 16 we will focus on how to recognize fake news. Learn how to check the sources, modes of identification, dates, structures, and content of what you receive on TV, computer, iPad or iPhone. Weed out the fake information and become an educated editor.

On October 23, learn more about alternatives to TV cable, DirectTV, and U-Verse. Various streaming devices and technologies will be discussed via media representatives and individuals who will share their personal experiences in actually cutting the cord.
