About this episode
Mark Zuckerberg has picked up the baton from Elon Musk as this week’s most depressing social media titan. His announcement to kick out fact-checking and let the community police itself is a significant moment in the rules (or lack of) governing how most of the world gets its news and opinions. The Matts discuss the potential damage, why this has happened now, and what a if anything - can citizens and governments do to resist the erosion of factual information in our times. Enjoy!
