An article titled "Misdirection, Fake News and Lies: The Best Books to Read on Disinformation" by The New York Times explores the issue of disinformation in the media. Especially in today's time, there are countless news sources available, and there is no way to strictly regulate each and every one. Additionally, the article states, "Anyone can create disinformation, share it, promote it. We’re all accomplices. We’re all victims." As disinformation can have large effects on important things such as politics and daily life, the article provides 4 Books that center around the topic of understanding and avoiding misinformation. Each book explores a different side of misinformation, touching on the themes of social media, politics, and power imbalance.
