- Education
With the 24-hour news media, countless blogs and videos, and near-infinite social media commentary, there’s a lot of noise out there. As a society, we are all struggling to combat disinformation, or “fake news,” and get at the truth. Of course, that’s easier said than done. Joined by guest Jon Miltimore, the FEEcasters discuss how to combat fake news and how constant advisories on everything from romaine lettuce to FBI Russia investigations begin to lose their sense of importance.
Show Notes:
Daryl Davis: Making Friends From Enemies
There’s No Such Thing as “Her Truth” or “His Truth”—Only the Truth
George Orwell: Looking back on the Spanish War
