The media landscape has changed, and children and adolescents now face a tsunami of entertainment and information. How they sort through this may have significant effects on their education and their health. We've called on some of the world's media experts to discuss what the crucial issues are and what teachers, administrators, schools, parents, and health professionals can do about them - hence, the title - Masters of Media.
Victor Strasburger is a pediatrician and media expert who has lectured on 5 continents and in 48 of 50 U.S. states. He has appeared on Today, Oprah, CBS This Morning, National Public Radio, and in major newspapers and magazines.
