Introduction Miriam J. Metzger, Andrew J. Flanagin University of California, Santa Barbara, Department of Communication
This chapter argues that understanding credibility is particularly complex—and consequential—in the digital media environment, especially for youth audiences, who have both advantages and disadvantages due to their relationship with contemporary technologies and their life experience. The chapter explains what is, and what is not, new about credibility in the context of digital media and discusses the major thrusts of current credibility concerns for scholars, educators, and youth.
