All people are creators.

As you look at this, I'm sure you're referring to "CGM".

Huh? What is CGM?

You often asked me questions.
CGM means "consumer-generated media" or "Media formed from user content".
It may be easier to understand if you imagine "YouTube" and " Wikipedia".

If you ask "Have you ever posted content on the Internet?" a lot of people will probably say "yes.".
In this way, the age when everyone can "creation" and "Outbound" content, that is, and "this period" is called "Period of 100 million people are creators".

Everyone is a creator!

Media literacy

Not all news on social media is right. Let's take the news as an example.

All the producers performed "Questionnaire survey on news". According to the results (Graphs), 29.2% of people answered "This really happened." despite the false news and 83.3% answered "This is a lie." despite the true news.

I could tell.

Not everyone, but we accept a news story without knowing whether it's true or not.
This is very dangerous.
"To obtain various information from various sources by oneself and use it to judge the truth or falsity." We call "Media literacy" "Ability to use all media and objectively judge information from media" but I think one of our challenges is to have the power and "consciousness" to judge objectively.

I also think that if you only get the content you are interested in, you will lose your perspective.
We think "Look beyond what you're interested in" is important thing.

If you've read this far and think,

It's better for us not to use 'Media'.
If we don't use it, we won't be deceived by lies.

don't forget that the Internet still has a lot of uncharted territory.
There are still benefits that you don't know about, so one way to change your social media mindset is to find them in your life.

Graphs
