Misinformation Nation (Correlation ≠ Causation)

What do we lose when misinformation spreads faster than the truth? In this episode of Equity Matters, we confront the rise of misinformation, why it spreads, how it takes root, and the dangers it poses to public trust. From historical betrayals like Tuskegee and forced sterilizations to today’s viral claims linking Tylenol and autism, we trace how mistrust is both inherited and exploited. We break down the difference between correlation and causation, the limits of junk science, and why flashy headlines often distort more than they reveal.
