  • Title: Media education. American Academy of Pediatrics. Committee on Public Education.
    Journal: Pediatrics; 1999 Aug; 104(2 Pt 1):341-3. PubMed ID: 10429023.
    Abstract:
    The American Academy of Pediatrics recognizes that exposure to mass media (ie, television, movies, video and computer games, the Internet, music lyrics and videos, newspapers, magazines, books, advertising, etc) presents both health risks and benefits for children and adolescents. Media education has the potential to reduce the harmful effects of media. By understanding and supporting media education, pediatricians can play an important role in reducing the risk of exposure to mass media for children and adolescents.
