Sensationalism and Us: Are We the Problem with Media?
A 60-minute session on our own appetite for sensational news: the bait we click, the shouting we watch, the videos we film and forward, the gossip we can't stop following. If the media gives us whatever we reward, how much of the problem is us? Twelve independent cards; open three or four.
How we do this
Be respectfulDisagree with the point, never the person.
Raise your hand to speakSo nobody has to talk over anybody.
Keep it shortSay the thing, then let the next person in.
Discussion is encouragedReply to each other, not just to the question.
Tangents are allowedIf the room follows it, it is the discussion.
This is a safe spaceWhat is said here stays in the room.
