i don t think it is an untouchable problem, we have seen other countries with highly polarized media environments, for example, the united kingdom do really good work on this topic but what we need is for our politicians to recognize that this is a democratic problem. it knows no political party, it is a democracy as an ultimate victim. we need those who are frankly benefiting from the political use of disinformation to recognize that they are putting the national security at risk and the democracy at risk. someday, disinformation is going to come for them as well and nobody wants that. we want people to be able to agree on facts and make well- informed choices at the ballot box. ultimately that is what is at stake here. until we come to that reconciliation in washington, it will be extremely difficult to do this work as my own experience has shown. when you say make informed choices, do you mean vote for democrats?
