| Yeni medya teknolojileri haber ve eğlence tüketim alışkanlıklarını çok hızlı değiştirecek bir şekilde gelişmeye devam etmektedir. Medya üretim ve tüketim pratiklerinin birbirine yaklaşması pasif tüketicinin yerini hem üreten hem tüketen 'üretketici'ye bırakmasına sebep oldu. Dolayısıyla yaşadığımız bu çağda, doğruluk, mahremiyet, sorumluluk gibi temel ilkelere bağlı kalma sözü veren geleneksel medya kuruluşlarının bilgi paylaşımı pratikleri birçok üretketici tarafından sorgulanıyor. Ancak, bilgi kirliliği yalnızca bu ağ toplumunun yarattığı durum neticesinde ortaya çıkan bir sonuç olmaktan öte hükümetlerden muhalif hareketlere kadar birçok farklı muhatabının olduğu bir düzensizlik durumu. Bu derste öğrenciler, yeni medya alanındaki bütün bu meseleleri teorik tartışmalarla güçlendirerek analiz edip tartışacak. |
