New Twitters, Part 3

From hype cycles to fake news, it's hard to find what's real on social media. Yet we spend much of our lives getting our news and interacting with one another on networks that know an enormous amount about us, while we know virtually nothing about them. Breaking the feed pulls back the curtain and explores the origins of today's social media landscape and addresses some of the most pressing issues including privacy, abuse, misinformation, and other harms. Our hosts, Taryn Ward and Steven Jones, walk through these issues and move beyond the headlines.
