Program Description

Event Details

What's the latest news popping up on your feed? Is the truth? Lies? How can you tell?

Join us each month as we look at the most popular misinformation showing up in social media, alternative media, and mainstream media.

We'll explore trending misinformation on a variety of topics including COVID-19, political and social issues, and more as well as practice looking for information outside our media bubble. 

To join this online program, you will need a computer, tablet or phone with a camera and microphone. The link to join the event will be emailed to registrants. A phone number will be included to allow you to use a phone as speaker and microphone, if necessary.
