It's a social media double-header this week. First, Warren reports back from his adventures in Boomer-populated Facebook political discussion groups and the cesspool of hate he found within.

After that we're joined by postdoc researcher of the University of Copenhagen Sille Obelitz Søe to talk about how just looking for "truth" in online posts isn't enough, how the distinctions between information, disinformation and misinformation make it nearly impossible for algorithms to detect them, and what this will mean for social media in an era of increasing regulation.

Check out Sille's work at www.donttakeitpersonal.net/, or on the University of Copenhagen website.
