What’s the true cost to business of the infodemic? Zignal Labs breaks down the threat in this download and offers examples of how to push back against disinformation.
The so-called “infodemic”—the portmanteau for the current crisis around misinformation online—might have peaked, but that doesn’t mean the threat isn’t still very real for brands and organizations.
Misinformation or disinformation threats are defined as “narratives containing information that is either entirely false, partly false, or misleading,” Zignal Labs says in its new download. “They may be spread intentionally or inadvertently, and can pose significant threats to individuals, businesses, and organizations.”
The guide looks to offer a clear picture of the current state of misinformation in the U.S., what risks are posed to the business community, and some effective tactics for pushing back against the pernicious threat.
