00:00:00,800 --> 00:00:05,400
Did you know that 25% of the Czech population trust disinformation?  

2
00:00:05,400 --> 00:00:10,000
And that the same amount of people trust “disinformation”  media over the "traditional" ones? 

3
00:00:10,500 --> 00:00:16,700
We are students of Masaryk University who aim to challenge subversive influences that purposely spread nonsense in the Czech Republic. 

4
00:00:16,700 --> 00:00:19,300
That is why we are starting “Zvol si info” (Choose information) initiative! 

5
00:00:20,000 --> 00:00:22,960
Imagine the world of media as a huge supermarket. 

6
00:00:23,800 --> 00:00:26,960
There, of course, you would not buy anything rotten that could cause you harm. 

7
00:00:27,000 --> 00:00:29,700
Every single day you pick clothes, food or drinks.

8
00:00:29,800 --> 00:00:32,720
And you probably know what is or is not good for you.

9
00:00:33,000 --> 00:00:35,820
But have you ever thought this way about information/what the media feed you with? 

10
00:00:35,840 --> 00:00:40,300
An article is a product like any other product. It only is called a "media product". 

11
00:00:40,400 --> 00:00:45,160
As any other product it also has its author, content and purpose. 

12
00:00:45,800 --> 00:00:49,020
If you think that propaganda days have been numbered, you are wrong. 

13
00:00:49,200 --> 00:00:53,500
In today´s world it surrounds us at each step, and it has become more sophisticated than ever. 

14
00:00:53,700 --> 00:00:58,000
It is up to you whether you let yourself to be poisoned by the information it produces or not. 

15
00:01:00,000 --> 00:01:03,300
We do not want to tell you what to read and what not to read. 

16
00:01:03,400 --> 00:01:04,700
You can think for yourself. 

17
00:01:04,800 --> 00:01:14,480
We only want to provide you with a list of simple ideas using which you can find out whether an article smells fishy, or is worth to read. 

18
00:01:15,000 --> 00:01:20,560
Don’t be a puppet of propaganda. Choose information!
