Popis: Media literacy allows individuals to better interpret the information they need to absorb to contribute to our democratic, knowledge-based society. I propose that by automatically notifying readers of an article's problematic pragmatic characteristics, an application could augment their media literacy. I describe two characteristics for which I have been building automatic classifiers -- factiness and tropes as narrative frames -- and discuss the status of each project.
