#About the event
Duration: 60 minutes
Recent years have seen intense scrutiny of the way language shapes our reality, with misinformation and freedom of speech becoming flashpoints in a polarised discourse. Examining the effect of political silos on democracy and the soft propaganda of public relations, Waleed Aly, Scott Stephens and John Safran consider how narratives provoke and position us – and how to restore the possibility of productive debate.
