With each passing day the potential reach of a single false news
story—and its ability to negatively impact all of us—grows in
both size and scope. Although politicians, activists, and ordinary
citizens regularly complain about deceptive or biased news reports,
they tend to define fake news as anything with which they happen to
disagree, thus compounding the problem even further. Seeking to
bring some much-needed clarity to the subject, journalist David G.
McAfee documents the myriad definitions of “fake news” and its
various incarnations throughout history, from ideologically
motivated disinformation operations to commercially motivated
misinformation campaigns. Demonstrating that we are all culpable in
the creation of the current pandemic, he presents a number of
practical and actionable suggestions for combating it. In the end,
however, he argues that each of us, no matter our political bent,
have an important role to play in curbing the insidious spread and
most dangerous effects of fake news.
