More about the book
The book delves into the pervasive issue of foreign-backed disinformation in the U.S. marketplace of ideas, particularly focusing on Russian influence. It critiques the inaction of successive administrations despite ethical obligations to combat this threat. The decline in public trust has facilitated the rise of populism and illiberalism, endangering American liberalism. It explores the executive branch's responsibilities, the challenges of addressing disinformation, and the complex interplay between social media, societal divides, and the First Amendment, ultimately questioning the limits of government intervention.
