A Critical Guide to Fake News: From Comedy to Tragedy

A Critical Guide to Fake News: From Comedy to Tragedy - 2018.
82
This article is a critical (not merely descriptive) guide to fake news. It tracks the term’s history, first in American comedy shows, and shifting more recently into a feature of “post-truth” politics, where it is manufactured (un-humoursly) as a weapon of strategic deception (even geo-political). Fake news phenomena have considerably dangerous implications for contemporary democracy.
