Intellectual self defense should be taught in High School (perhaps Middle School) - ie. how to read/interpret and interact with all forms of contemporary media.

Particularly galling is that the media feel compelled to constantly attribute the soaring casualty count to the "Hamas-run" Gaza Health Ministry. As if to say, "take this with a grain of salt, people." Wink, wink. But it's been shown that with past Israeli attacks on Gaza, the numbers that the health ministry have put out have ALWAYS been verified by human rights and aid organizations as basically accurate. But of course, major "news" outlets like CNN are either too lazy or too complicit to report that.
