Laura Donohue: Social Media, Disinformation, & National Security

In our first episode we talk with Professor Laura Donohue about the effects of social media on the First Amendment, the national discourse, and national security. We discuss the history of misinformation, its weaponization and how the modern internet-driven era is different. From fake people living on the moon to the Russian active measures campaign—Donohue does a deep dive into what has been and the current state of affairs.
