Talking Points: Fake News
“Fake News: How to Tell Fact from Fiction”
Lyn Millner, M.F.A., professor of journalism, Florida Gulf Coast University. Millner studies misinformation, filter bubbles, cults and conspiracy theories. Join us as she discusses the phenomenon of fake news: what it is, where it originates, and how to be an intelligent current-events consumer in these unreliable times.
BIG ARTS Talking Points series for the upcoming 2021 season can be accessed online for the same per-session charge as in-person attendance. Note that due to COVID-19 precautions, all of this season’s Talking Points speakers (with the exception of Kinfay Moroti on February 25) will be making virtual appearances via online connection and will not be physically present in the hall. Talking Points is designed to get you “talking,” so we hope to see many of you get comfortable at home, grab a snack and a drink of your choice, and log in!
You can live stream all the Talking Points sessions from home. During or following the talk, you will be able to text your questions and comments to the speaker. The program and remote login and participation instructions will be sent one week in advance of each session. For more information and to purchase tickets, call the box office at 239-395-0900.
