Lamoille Valley Osher Lifelong Learning Institute will present Dr. Cheryl Casey, Professor of Communication and Media, Champlain College to discuss the rampant scourge of dis-and misinformation: hardly new players in the information environment, but transformed in scope and impact by computer networks and algorithmic code. With communication technologies rapidly evolving, we are faced with greater challenges than ever to be intentional and effective seekers, consumers, and producers of information. We cannot let those who would hijack our information landscape in the name of power and profit take away our very freedom of thought.
