Discussion
Details
Konrad Adenauer Stiftung and diaNEOsis are hosting a panel discussion on the issue of fake news and social bots in political communication.
The panelists will focus on questions such as:
- Why are there fake news and how do they influence public opinion?
- What is “post-truth politics” and how has it emerged?
- How do governments, political campaigns and other entities “weaponize" the dissemination of false information?
- Which are the sources and the consequences of the problem?
- Are politicians -or voters- less honest than before?
- Is the effect on public discourse reversible?
