part of the reason that we are

susceptible to misinformation is that

these new platforms make all information

look people a New York Times article

looks the same as a bright bar article

in the share model of a Twitter or a

Facebook we have flattened years of

distinction of quality and

accountability and credibility to make

everything look the same oh this is from

an institution that's received Pulitzer

Prizes and actually pays journalist and

has fact checkers on staff verses this

was made from a content farm in another

country that's been flagged three times

for monetizing this information just

because something says it's information

doesn't make it so
