The Lie Detectives: In Search of a Playbook for Winning Elections in the Disinformation Age.

RSM Speaker Series

How have political campaigns prepared themselves to navigate the challenges of disinformation in 2024? What lessons have they learned from past elections, and what strategies are they deploying in an age where disinformation online continues to run rampant in the forms of conspiracy theories, memes, and now, AI?

The Institute for Rebooting Social Media is pleased to welcome journalist Sasha Issenberg to discuss his new book, The Lie Detectives: In Search of a Playbook for Winning Elections in the Disinformation Age, which presents a snapshot of a political class working to find acceptable solutions to counteracting mis/disinformation. The discussion will be moderated by RSM Visiting Scholar Myojung Chung.

This event will be held at the Berkman Klein Center (room 515) from 12:30pm-1:30pm ET. Lunch will be served! In-person attendance is limited to Harvard ID holders, but the general public is invited to attend virtually via Zoom.

Register for in-person attendance (Harvard ID holders) or Zoom attendance (general public).
