Sinan Aral, David Austin Professor of Management at MIT Sloan and author
of the forthcoming book, “The Hype Machine,” discusses insights from

misinformation spreads, what causes it to spread so fast, and who—or
what—is spreading it.
It is the largest study of its kind about fake news and is featured in
Science, “The Spread of True and False News Online”, March 9, 2018.
Tim O’Reilly, the founder, CEO, and Chairman of O’Reilly Media, and the
author of many books including, “WTF: What’s the Future and Why It’s Up
to Us,” also appears on the program to discuss possible technological
and algorithmic solutions.
