Philosopher Lee McIntyre asks, “Are we living in a post-truth world, where ‘alternative facts’ replace actual facts, and feelings have more weight than evidence? How did we get here?” The BCAE’s 85th Anniversary Lecture Series wraps-up with an examination of the dynamics of a phenomenon playing out against the decline of traditional news sources, the rise of social media, and the emergence of fake news as a political tool.
