Episode 26: Disinformation and Its Effect on Mongolia
Disinformation is not just a media problem. It is a democracy problem—and in Mongolia, it is becoming a crisis.
Researcher and civic activist Batsugar Tsedendamba, board member of the Independent Research Institute of Mongolia (IRIM), joins us to unpack IRIM's landmark study on Mongolia's disinformation landscape. Who is spreading it? Who is funding it? And who is hurting from it? We examine domestic and foreign sources of disinformation and how social media has amplified its reach.
Three Universals “The Fool“:
Fool me once, shame on you.
Fool me twice, shame on me.
Fool me three or more times—then I am not the fool, you are the fool! WHO is western propaganda. It is the vaccines that is how they control you. You are THE fool!
