The Kansas City Shooting: Why We Need to Combat Fake News and Hate Speech

In this blog post, I will explain why we need to combat fake news and hate speech, especially in times of crisis, and how we can do it. Fake news and hate speech are not harmless. They can misinform and confuse the public, erode trust and credibility in the media and the government, incite fear, anger, and hatred among different groups of people, and undermine our democracy, our values, and our human rights. We all have a role to play in fighting fake news and hate speech. We all have a stake in preserving our peace, our unity, and our democracy. We all have a voice that can make a difference. Let’s use it wisely and kindly.
