The best book on fake news, disinformation and manipulation!
The media, politicians, social media – from all these sources, we are constantly bombarded with speculation about who is trying to misinform us, how, and why. But what do the often-repeated terms fake news, disinformation, and alternative facts actually mean? Is this a recent phenomenon, or has it been with us, cleverly hidden, for centuries? How is it possible that it works? Who creates it and why? And most importantly, how can we defend ourselves against it?
This book, with its clever manipulation right in the title, will help you find the answers, or at least provide some food for thought about the daily flood of information. It's best to approach this deluge critically, but without unnecessary paranoia.
