How vulnerable are voters to misinformation?

Ahead of every election, concerns resurface about the impact of misinformation on voters. Public debate often highlights the role of the media in fueling polarization and creating "parallel universes," where people consume news that reinforce their political views. But what solid evidence do we have that today's voters cannot tell fact from fiction? And what explains the difference between those who can and those who cannot?  Speakers Jörgen Huitfeldt, Editor in Chief, Kvartal Daniel Poohl, CEO, Expo Andrea Prat, Richard Paul Richman Professor of Business at Columbia Business School and Professor of Economics at Columbia University. Prat has done research in political economy with focus on the influence of media on the democratic processes. Prat has also held positions and published his research in renowned academic journals.
