Kate Starbird is an associate professor in the Human Centered Design Engineering program at the UW, and one of the co-principal investigators of UW's Center for an Informed Public. • • She is the go-to voice for monitoring and dispelling conspiracy theories and disinformation. • • Misinformation is information that's false, but not necessarily intentionally false. So, a rumor that turns out not to be true. But the people who created it didn't know that it wasn't true when they created it, explained Starbird. Disinformation, on the other hand, is information that's misleading, false or misleading for some kind of purpose, often a political objective. And we see disinformation as much more, in some ways, problematic because it's an intentional distortion of the information space. • • Learn more: https://www.king5.com/article/news/po...
