    Explainiacs 14 - The Future of Truth (and How to Get There) | Lindley's new book about mis- and dis-information and how to fight them in real-time

    4 years since Explainiacs began in COVID time, Lindley is back with one of our wonderful Explainiacs from Season 1 - Pete Cohen. We're talking about Lindley's new book The Future of Truth (and How to Get There). There's lots more, and a link to buy it, at thefutureoftruth.info This is the story of mis- and dis-information, how to spot them both in real-time and fight back wherever our timelines take us. False information and fake news are now classed as one of the world's greatest societal threats, and Lindley has spent the last year down the rabbit hole discovering the human causes, and easiest ways to clean up our information diet, based on his years in news and broadcasting, and lots of the best research on the subject.
