Description

Bill Adair, PolitiFact creator and Knight Professor of Journalism at Duke University, sits down with Jon Stewart to discuss his upcoming book, “Beyond the Big Lie.” He reveals how his fact-checking site operates with the simple missive of answering people’s curiosities, deciphering political speech amidst the rise of social media, and the government’s role in combatting misinformation and disinformation. #DailyShow #FactCheck #Election #JonStewart Subscribe to The Daily Show: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCwWhs_6x42TyRM4Wstoq8HA/?sub_confirmation=1 Follow The Daily Show: Twitter: https://twitter.com/TheDailyShow Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/thedailyshow Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thedailyshow Stream full episodes of The Daily Show on Paramount+: http://www.paramountplus.com/thedailyshow Follow Comedy Central: Twitter: https://twitter.com/ComedyCentral Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ComedyCentral Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/comedycentral About The Daily Show: Jon Stewart and The Best F**king News Team host The Daily Show, an Emmy and Peabody Award-winning program analyzing the biggest stories in news, politics, and culture through a sharp, satirical lens.

Missourians, We have a great chance to replace a Federalist Society's pipeline of corporate-owned Politicians, like Josh Hawley, for an actual Missourian, Lucas Kunce 😊 Blue 🌊 Trifecta, as FDR had, and we can finally have the FDR Democracy 2.0 😊 USA 🇺🇸 🗽 🌻 ✌ 🌎

The effect of digital media on political misinformation and disinformation is not going away. It is crucial that new laws are made to deal with this.
