Fake news is a recently-named genre in our contemporary media landscape. With reference to a specific example, argue for or against the idea that fake news harms democracy in Canada. Potential examples include disinformation tactics during an election campaign or deep fakes of notable people. Consider questions such as these: What is fake news? What are the implications for democracy in Canada and for the “marketplace of ideas” if we cannot distinguish fake news? Does objective and balanced journalism lose validity in the face of fake news?
