Politics and democracy has been challenged with the problem of misinformation and disinformation in an age of growing extremism.
EP22 - Fighting Extremism and Lying in Politics: Penny Edwards Blue of Red Wine & Blue. Lying has always been part of political strategy. But the deceleration of disinformation and misinformation in the age of social media and Donald Trump has put that strategy into hyperdrive. Over the last ten years we have seen what lying can do: It can destabilize governments, destroy reputations, influence voters and remove people from office.
On episode 22 of the Black Virginia News podcast we will discuss these issues with Penny Edwards Blue of Red Wine & Blue.
