Stamp will explore media bias and discuss how to identify fake news across TV, film, news and social media.<\/p>\n<p>The series is set to begin production later this spring. International advocacy organization Global Citizen is on board to executive produce. The Shaw Rocket Fund is providing backing for the series.

As adults, sometimes it seems like our only defense is to turn off the screens\u2014but I see that as putting a fence around the pool. What I think we need to do is teach kids how to swim! I\u2019m so honored to partner with TELUS independent, Global Citizen and Sinking Ship Entertainment to start these important conversations!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Christina Willings, senior program manager of TELUS independent, said, \u201cTELUS independent is thrilled to partner with Sinking Ship Entertainment to produce this vital children\u2019s content. TELUS takes seriously our commitment to equipping the next generation to navigate the world they will inherit, to identify bias, disinformation and dangerous misdirection in an increasingly complex media environment and to do so with humor and compassion.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are proud to partner with Sinking Ship Entertainment on <em>Media Stamped<\/em>, a unique entertainment program that will help global citizens educate and equip their children to navigate a complex and fractured media environment,\u201d added Lee Rolontz, global head of broadcast and original content at Global Citizen. \u201cFair and balanced journalism is a key pillar of a healthy, democratic society, and empowering the next generation of global citizens with media literacy skills to discern the information they receive is essential to the future of our world.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>TELUS independent, a pilot feature doc and limited series program funded by TELUS Communications, has greenlit Sinking Ship Entertainment\u2019s Media Stamped, a kids\u2019 media literacy series.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1412,"featured_media":26755,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"pmpro_default_level":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[21],"tags":[9016,9017,9018,9019,9020,865,423,9021,9022],"class_list":["post-26754","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","","category-top-stories","tag-christina-willings","tag-global-citizen","tag-lee-rolontz","tag-media-stamped","tag-nicole-stamp","tag-shaw-rocket-fund","tag-sinking-ship-entertainment","tag-telus-communications","tag-telus-independent","pmpro-has-access"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.7 -
