How can we effectively talk about truth? How are misinformation campaigns being addressed across the globe?
The Institute for Rebooting Social Media welcomes Johan Farkas to discuss contemporary political struggles over how we define what’s true and what’s false, based on the 2nd edition of Post-Truth, Fake News and Democracy: Mapping the Politics of Falsehood. The conversation will explore how fake news has impacted recent historic events, including the COVID-19 pandemic, and present both a critique of prominent current solutions to the spread of disinformation as well as potential democratic alternatives.
This event will be fully virtual and moderated by Applied Social Media Lab Senior Director Jonathan Bellack.
