In an impromptu and spontaneous episode I look at two words that have become more and more important in recent times: misinformation and disinformation.
-
These two words have become more and more prevalent in our everyday lives, especially since the Covid pandemic.
-
But now more so as certain people with a lot of power deliberately try to mislead us by posting disinformation.
-
My message to you in this episode is to think about how we can stop this, by calling it out, or by using trusted sources for our information.
- Misinformation is the term to describe getting facts wrong.
- Disinformation is false information deliberately intended to mislead people.
