Details

Join us for a virtual and panel discussion on global and domestic information wars with professors Scott Tyson, Laura Whitebell, and Nikita Maslennikov. How should citizens, politicians, and journalists approach the problem of fake news? How do governments leverage information to further their international influence and control their citizens at home? What special threats does disinformation hold for democracies? We will take up these and other questions with our panel, and welcome still more questions from attendees in our subsequent Q&A.
