A brief introduction to Lies and Truth
Tell the history of fake news in the United States, dig deep into its causes, and enumerate its impact, including a large number of cases. The 10-chapter book, which begins with the birth of news in the United States in the 17th century and continues through 2021, focuses on the origin, development, and impact of fake news in the United States. According to the author's research, fake news comes into being with the birth of American journalism and continues to develop until now. It is an inescapable phenomenon of American journalism and has been denounced as a "degenerate and twisted monster" by Raphael Pulitzer, the son of news tycoon Pulitzer. From the early days of the fake to gain attention, to compete for the market to discredit other media, and then to the wartime control of public relations tools, today, false news has become a partisan, capital struggle weapon, so that the public's life is filled with "toxic" false news.
