Profs and Pints: "Bots, Trolls and Fake News"
Social media, once looked upon as a potential savior of democracy, has instead been infiltrated by bots and trolls that spread fake news, distort elections, and undermine meaningful debate. Professor Alan Rosenblatt, a thought leader on social media and director of digital research for Lake Research Partners, will answer questions such as: How bad is the problem? What are the tell-tale signs of a bot? How are trolls coordinating their activities? What is fake news? How can democracy survive this onslaught?
