Calling out misinformation and disinformation

from English Podcast with Tommy · host Tamás Bradford

In an impromptu and spontaneous episode I look at two words that have become more and more important in recent times: misinformation and disinformation. - These two words have become more and more prevalent in our everyday lives, especially since the Covid pandemic. - But now more so as certain people with a lot of power deliberately try to mislead us by posting disinformation. - My message to you in this episode is to think about how we can stop this, by calling it out, or by using trusted sources for our information. - Misinformation is the term to describe getting facts wrong. - Disinformation is false information deliberately intended to mislead people.
