40:57Now PlayingOn the internet, a top Stanford researcher has been smeared as a censorship supervillain, whose goal is to silence free speech. People claim she is responsible for deleting 22 million tweets and working for the CIA. None of this is true. It is all part of an elaborate conspiracy cooked up by the far right, which made its ways to the halls of congress.
Now, former Stanford Internet Observatory research manager Renée DiResta is speaking out about what it's like to monitor disinformation about yourself, and how anyone can become the subject of these dangerous hate and disinformation campaigns.
Later, I talk about my latest story about how Biden is struggling to garner the support of Gen Z influencers, the surgeon general’s campaign to put warning labels on social media, Logan Paul’s Trump interview, TikTok’s new AI-generated ads, and whether content creators are going broke.
