Once more just redirecting you to someone else’s genius idea (or less honestly sharing a link), but the idea of warning labels for journalism is just too excellent not to share. Tom Scott has produced a set of warning labels for sticking onto news reports and has made them downloadable as a PDF for avery labels. As he puts it:
“It seems a bit strange to me that the media carefully warn about and label any content that involves sex, violence or strong language — but there’s no similar labelling system for, say, sloppy journalism and other questionable content.
I figured it was time to fix that, so I made some stickers. I’ve been putting them on copies of the free papers that I find on the London Underground. You might want to as well.”
So go read, print and enjoy.
