In this episode, Ian and Jiewen will touch base on the topic of disinformation. They will first talk about what disinformation is and how it is different from misinformation. As they delve deeper into this topic, they draw on the reading: Producers of Disinformation - Version 1.2 (Spies, 2020) to talk about how disinformation affects us when it comes to demographics and what caused the spread of the disinformation. Discussions in this episode will include examining examples of disinformation they have come across to support their points, along with the reading: Deepfakes Are Going To Wreak Havoc On Society. We Are Not Prepared (Toews, 2020). Lastly, they will relate to the reading: The Promises, Challenges, and Futures of Media Literacy (Bulger & Davison, 2018) and jump into the conversation on what actions educators, private entities, as well as the government should take to stop the spread of disinformation.
