A Conversation with Barbara McQuade, author, Attack from Within How Disinformation Is Sabotaging America


Listen Later

Join Michael in his conversation with Professor Barbara McQuade about her new book Attack from Within, How Disinformation is Sabotaging America which addresses the issue of how disinformation is polarizing American society and threatening the foundations of our democracy.

We are strategically being pushed apart by disinformation—the deliberate spreading of lies disguised as truth—and it comes at us from all sides: opportunists on the far right, Russian misinformed social media

influencers, among others. It’s endangering our democracy and causing havoc in our electoral system,schools, hospitals, workplaces, and in our Capitol.

Advances in technology including rapid developments in artificial intelligence threaten to make the problems even worse by amplifying false claims and manufacturing credibility.

In Attack from Within, Barbara McQuade, shows us how to identify the ways disinformation is seeping into all facets of our society and how we can fight against it.
