Digital Democracy, Social Media and Disinformation
Digital Democracy, Social Media and Disinformation discusses some of the political, regulatory and technological issues which arise from the increased power of internet intermediaries (such as Facebook, Twitter and YouTube) and the impact of the spread of digital disinformation, especially in the midst of a health pandemic. The volume provides a detailed account of the main areas surrounding digital democracy, disinformation and fake news, freedom of expression and post-truth politics.It addresses the major theoretical and regulatory concepts of digital democracy and the ‘network society’ before offering potential socio-political and technological solutions to the fight against disinformation and fake news.These solutions include self-regulation, rebuttals and myth-busting, news literacy, policy recommendations, awareness and communication strategies and the potential of recent technologies such as the blockchain and public interest algorithms to counter disinformation. After addressing what has currently been done to combat disinformation and fake news, the volume argues that digital disinformation needs to be identified as a multifaceted problem, one that requires multiple approaches to resolve.Governments, regulators, think tanks, the academy and technology providers need to take more steps to better shape the next internet with as little digital disinformation as possible by means of a regional analysis.In this context, two cases concerning Russia and Ukraine are presented regarding disinformation and the ways it was handled. Written in a clear and direct style, this volume will appeal to students and researchers within the social sciences, computer science, law and business studies, as well as policy makers engaged in combating what constitutes one of the most pressing issues of the digital age.

Misinformation, Disinformation, and Propaganda in Greek Historiography
Mindful of the present state of discourse on ancient Greek historiography, this edited volume explores the major themes of pursuing factuality, managing witness/source bias, falling into historical error and creating or confronting propaganda.Even the greatest ancient historians, striving for factuality and truthfulness, must commence from subjectivity.Their works, when studied closely, reveal biases and conceptual or ideological distortions – their own and others’.For this reason, Misinformation, Disinformation and Propaganda in Greek Historiography strives to evaluate the issues which stand in the way of factuality in historical texts and records. The contributors, all experts in the field, explore and question the accuracy of the historiography in question; the ancient author’s fidelity to their sources; and the evidence presented in relation to inherited oral traditions.In this way, an ancient author’s methodology is evaluated in terms of its probability, the awareness of its cultural variation and the influences which we can deduce within the texts.This volume presents an important contribution to the study of what constitutes fact and fiction within ancient Greek historiography.

A History of Disinformation in the U.S.
This volume recounts notable episodes of distortion throughout American media history.It examines several of the lurid hoaxes and conspiracy theories that have inspired press coverage, as well as some of the political lies promoted by partisan gladiators, whether of the eighteenth century or today. The book moves beyond the sensational stories to show the enduring and systemic nature of media manipulation that occurs on far more consequential issues.It exposes persistent and deeply destructive falsehoods that have been told about women, people of color, immigrants, the LGBTQ+ community, unions, commercial products, highlighting how longstanding “bipartisan” myths have effectively marginalized certain groups of Americans.Alongside these cases, the author carefully dissects the changing nature of institutions, technologies, and practices of journalism in America.Attention is given to the evolution of newspapers in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, the role of broadcasting in the twentieth, and the impact of the internet and social media at the dawn of the twenty-first. This book will appeal to readers interested in American history, journalism, communication studies, political science and sociology.

Which still existing disinformation method for media did Joseph Goebbels invent?
Joseph Goebbels, the Nazi Minister of Propaganda, is credited with inventing the concept of the "Big Lie" as a disinformation method for media.
