Abstract

Few subjects seem more central to our current condition than disinformation. Media of various types repeat familiar tropes - we are suffering a crisis of truth - the once purportedly distinct line between fact and fiction has been blurred indefinitely. Our capacity to navigate the information environment and discern truth from lie has been breached, and the very fabric of democracy is imperilled.
