What you read online isn’t always what it seems to be! With the help of Michelle Ciulla Lipkin, the Executive Director of the National Association for Media Literacy Education, Laika and Albie solve a new riddle and help Gordy with a questionable article. 

Michelle is obsessed with media literacy. She has been the Executive Director of NAMLE since 2012. During the last 8 years, NAMLE has launched U.S. Media Literacy Week (now in its 6th year!), hosted conferences in D.C., Philadelphia, L.A. and Chicago, grown from 300 to 6,000 members, and created The National Media Literacy Alliance bringing together teacher member organizations from every subject area. Before working at NAMLE, Michelle worked in children's television production. She lives in NYC with her husband, her rock star kids (google them) and her dog, Auggie. She prefers life before the pandemic but is getting by.
