Call it whatever you like, but “fake news” isn’t a new invention. It’s been around at least since the ancient world when Pharaoh Ramesses had his allegedly huge victory over the Hittites immortalized in stone (still visible today) in spite of being pretty evenly matched and actually losing territory when it was time to sign the world’s first peace treaty. And it doesn’t matter if you happen to believe the fake news that’s bombarding you daily, as long as it saps your morale for critical thinking and keeps you in a state of perpetual mistrust.
To investigate the evolution of fake news and its weaponization in the age of social media, we’re joined by ex-CIA analyst Cindy Otis, author of True or False: A CIA Analyst’s Guide to Spotting Fake News. Here, we discuss what fake news is and why it’s so quick to take root, how misinformation differs from disinformation, what happens when satire is spread as fact, how people in strange places get rich inventing lies that destabilize democracy, and how we can inoculate ourselves — and our children — against the intended impact of fake news. And no, the irony of dishing over fake news with someone who used to be in the CIA wasn’t lost on either of us! Listen, learn, and enjoy!
