[Air-L] Fake News

[Jeanine Finn]

I recently completed a dissertation that addressed credibility practices in news reporting. Who knew?! ;) 

In light of recent events - I put together a annotated bibliography of some of the more relevant materials from my lit review for scholars who might be new to this area. You might find something useful there:

Best,

Jeanine
