The Lie Detectives: An Evening with Sasha Issenberg

As political campaigns around the world are ready for the busiest election year in human history, and few issues are as urgent for candidates and parties as how to handle the barrage of online disinformation. Veteran political reporter Sasha Issenberg visits the Dole Institute for a conversation on his new book, The Lie Detectives: In Search for a Playbook for Winning Elections in the Disinformation Age, which explores how the new online landscape has forced those who run campaigns to rethink everything they thought they knew about how to reach and move voters.
This program is presented in partnership with the Lawrence Public Library and the KU Honors Program.
