DESCRIPTION:NEW BOOK:  "Cheap Speech: How Disinformation Poisons Our Politics — and 
 How to Cure It"\n\nSPEAKER: Richard L. Hasen, author and Chancellor’s 
 Professor of Law and Political Science, UC Irvine School of Law\n\nDate and 
 time: Thu, March 24, 2022 @ 3:00 PM – 4:00 PM PDT\n\nMore Info: 
 https://www.brennancenter.org/events/social-medias-free-speech-problem-0\n\nLivestream 
 here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=diz2hrd8v6s\n\n\nThe problem of 
 misinformation on social media has ballooned over the last few years, 
 especially in relation to elections. The result has been further 
 polarization of our already divided country. There has been a boisterous 
 debate about the de-platforming of former president Donald Trump, but how 
 else are social media companies able to combat those deliberately spreading 
 false information? How do we control this false speech while protecting the 
 First Amendment — and our democracy?\n\nJoin us for a live discussion 
 with one of the country’s leading experts on election law, Richard L. 
 Hasen, author of the upcoming book Cheap Speech: How Disinformation Poisons 
 Our Politics — and How to Cure It, for a look into how social media 
 companies can solve this problem without shutting down the essential free 
 flow of ideas and opinions.\n\n\n
