FYI 48 Misinformation with Suzanne LaPierre

from FYI: The Public Libraries Podcast Hosted by Public Libraries Online

This episode is about misinformation. Whether it is lies about the election, or COVID-19, or conspiracy theories, we have seen just how insidious the spread of misinformation can be. Our guest is Suzanne LaPierre, the Virginiana Librarian at Fairfax County Public Library in Virginia. Suzanne has researched and written on misinformation and disinformation. You can find her work over at Public Libraries Online (www.publiclibrariesonline.org) and be sure to check out her article (along with co-author Vanessa Kitzie) "Lots of Questions about Fake News: How Public Libraries Have Addressed Media Literacy 2016-2018" which appeared in the Oct/Dec 2019 issue of Public Library Quarterly
