The Rise and Fall of Fake News
The Fritt Ord Foundation and The Norwegian Academy of Science and Letters invite the public to a conversation about fake news, fact-checking and public trust, on Tuesday 17 October 2017, 5 p.m., at Uranienborgveien 2.
In 2016, Oxford Dictionaries declared post-truth its international word of the year, and defined it as the state of affairs when “objective facts are less influential in shaping public opinion than appeals to emotion and personal belief.” PolitiFact named fake news its 2016 “Lie of the Year”. Since then, the term has lost much of its initial meaning and content in the public debate.
