Should Facebook, YouTube, and other social media companies be held accountable for creating a culture of misinformation, polarization, and hate? Can they continue to hide behind ‘Freedom of Speech’ to absolve themselves of responsibility? Is it time for government to step in? In this episode, Prerna reflects on social media’s contribution to insurrection that took place at the U.S. Capitol on January 6th, 2021. In a lit-review style, she shares research from world-renowned scholars to discuss how we got here and what Americans can do to get democracy back on track.
