“…It is especially important to master special media literacy, which differs from the literacy of real communication (Forsman, 2020). This view is also emphasized by Brites and Pinto (2017) in a study of the role of the new industry in improving literacy.…”

The aim of the work was to test the opportunities that social media offers on the Internet as a tool to improve the future journalists' communicative competence. Sociological methods were involved in the research in order to achieve its aim: a method of testing respondents to identify their initial level of communicativeness on the Communicative Competence Test and the Questionnaire Survey Method to obtain feedback from participants in the experiment. Working on media content on the Internet proved to improve communication skills of future journalists with the help of popular YouTube media and blogs with bright visual content. It was found that media resources can be used during lectures to stimulate interest and to engage students in active learning that promote deeper knowledge. The possibility of involving online mass media in joint learning, problem solving, interactive lecture demonstrations, as well as discussions was noted. A number of difficulties that the course participants encountered were found: a thorough understanding of copyright law, increased workload, lack of skills in working with electronic text, video and audio content, increased visual load. However, these difficulties did not affect the quality of training and allowed the participants to improve not only communication skills but also digital information skills and online media literacy. It was proved that social media is a powerful additional tool that encourages students to actively study, get high results and sustainable professional skills that are in demand in the future workplace. The media cannot, however, replace traditional teaching methods which are based on personal communication. Further research is required on complex long-term courses that use a wider range of media, including Tik-Tok, Facebook, Instagram, extended blogs in the form of a multipage website, a funnel for gathering the target audience and subscribing.

With the development of social media and the ease of information dissemination, fake news is becoming a serious problem. The role of media literacy as an antidote to misinformation has been widely studied around the world. In this regard, international organizations such as UNESCO and ASEAN, are helping Asian countries to fight fake news by creating conditions for improving media literacy. The work of these organizations in Indonesia is studied. The qualitative methods of analysis were used. By comparing the two approaches, recommendations were made for other Asian countries to optimize their media literacy efforts. The results showed that UNESCO and ASEAN are working effectively with the target groups in Indonesia. UNESCO has been active in promoting critical thinking among the public and working with local media companies, while ASEAN has focused on regional cooperation and developing comprehensive educational programs. Overall, a systematic and multifaceted approach is needed to raise the level of media literacy in the Asian region, which includes new educational programs, strengthening of legal regulation in the field of false information dissemination, cooperation between the government, media companies and the public, development of critical thinking among the population and increased activity of international organizations.

“…The increasing focus on media and information literacy is an example of this shift, as it is an attempt to give individual citizens the competency or capability to navigate and manage the risks of a media-saturated society on their own. Sweden's Public Authority for Press, Radio and Television has been given an increasing mandate to coordinate efforts on media literacy, and media and information literacy has been given a stronger standing within the school system in Sweden (Forsman, 2020). Here, the longstanding collaboration between the reformist labor movement, the state, and institutions for popular education in regard to media education and educating digital citizens should be mentioned (Rahm, 2019(Rahm, , 2021.…”

What does media welfare mean from a normative perspective? The notion of media welfare and “the media welfare state” has mainly been used descriptively, to depict the particular way in which the media are organized in the Nordic welfare states. In this article, we explore media welfare from a normative perspective. Our intention is to open up a discussion about the normative and political implications of the notion of media welfare and to bring the concept into the contemporary discussion on normative perspectives regarding the media.
