Lifelong Learning Lecture: Disinformation, Misinformation, and Just Plain Lies
Guest speaker: Dr. David Smailes, Former Associate Professor of Political Science, Law and Global Studies, Framingham State University
We live in an age where information about politics is more readily available than ever, but we also seem to feel more uncertain about how much of that information we can trust. Join us as we examine how information is often manipulated in political discussions and how we can be on our guard against information that is designed to mislead us.
