Let's face it: people lie. We lie to each other and to ourselves. How is the rewiring of communication in the digital revolution changing how we lie? How can we trust that online review, or that text message about someone being on their way? We’ll discuss the state-of-the-art in deception detection research on how to spot a liar online, explore some new forms of deception, and examine how different technologies affect both how we lie and how we trust online. Jeff Hancock will share key principles that can guide how we can think about deception and truth in this new digital age and how we can use this knowledge as journalists.
