Misinformation, Facts and Science: The latest episode from Unapologetic Women is out now. This week listen to us discuss the ever-changing landscape of misinformation and disinformation. Is there even a difference? Yes, although it probably depends on who you are asking. Here are just some of the questions we tried to tackle: Who gets to decide what is a fact? who should we turn to and trust for the most reliable and accurate information? Are some voices dangerous to listen to and who decided which voices are more important and reliable than others? What role should we play as a responsible citizen? by Unapologetic Women
