There are a lot of concerns about media literacy and critical thinking in kids these days, because they spend so much time immersed in the media and are exposed to a lot of violence and messages about race and world issues. This is something I am really interested in, and I love listening to these people argue about communism, the evil of Liberals and their evil motives, and...the Muppets. The creators of the latest movie have defended themselves, saying in this article, "Cable news is 24 hours long so you have to fill it up with something. No, the Muppets are not communist. And the character of Tex Richman is not an allegory for capitalism in any way. The character is called Tex Richman."
The world amazes me, every single day. Remind me to never work at FOX news.
