DEADLOCK

When Disinformation Meets Social Media

Season 2024 Episode 1 | 4m 08s

What happens when a video with enhanced audio surfaces and rapidly gains views on social media? What should the incumbent president do, and how should the social media platform respond? This particular video may be hypothetical, but the issues surrounding it are very real. ‘DEADLOCK: An Election Story’ encourages civil dialogue and critical thinking in an era dominated by polarizing debates.

Location furnished by The New York Historical. Funding for BREAKING the DEADLOCK was made possible in part by PBS viewers.
