2 p.m. Reunion College: Finding Our Way in a Post-Truth Era Gendebien Room, Skillman Library In an era of filter bubbles, partisan journalism, and social media, how can we find reliable and balanced sources of information? Are attempts to undermine trust in the news media a form of censorship? The Lafayette Libraries has invited four faculty members—Il Hyun Cho (government and law), Jon Dahl (computer science), and Joe Shieber (philosophy)— to examine questions surrounding truth in the news from their different disciplinary perspectives. Please join us for a conversation similar to one students had in February 2018 that we hope will allow us to think more deeply about how we find and consume news, and how changes in news media affect our lives and our society.
