“The Annenberg Public Policy Center at the University of Pennsylvania applauds the News Literacy Project’s effort to give students the tools to discern verified information amid the explosion of sources available today,’’ said Kathleen Hall Jamieson, the center’s director. “This goal is consistent with Annenberg’s mission of furthering understanding of the role of communication in public life through research, education and service.” The News Literacy Project uses the center’s Factcheck.org in its activities on viral e-mail and Wikipedia and as one of its recommended resources.
