Ideology and the News Media (full version). This resource focuses on ideology, political power, and rights and freedoms in a democratic society. The main assignment is to write an editorial based on Premier William Aberhart's (Social Credit Party) radio address in which he promotes the adoption of the The Accurate News and Information Act. The editorial writing assignment is carried out in a virtual newsroom where students interact with an editor, copy editor, political correspondent, reporter, photographer, cartoonist and librarian.

Ideology and the News Media ("lite" version). This "lite" version has all of the required resources and graphics. However, a number of the special effects have been stripped out to allow it to play more efficiently on older, slower computers.
