"Today's definition of literacy is more than reading and writing. In order to be functionally literate in our media-saturated world, children and young people - in fact, all of us - have to be able to read the messages that daily inform us, entertain us and sell to us. As the Internet becomes a fact of life, the critical thinking skills that help young people navigate through traditional media are even more important."
