About the Work
Nearly one in four Americans admitted to sharing propaganda on social media, and two-thirds believe that false information compromised the 2016 election. The Columbia Journalism Review wanted to confront people with the lies they’re unknowingly spreading. So we created the Fake Newsstand. We found misleading headlines that had been widely shared online, and we made them tangible for the first time by putting them on the covers of what looked like real publications. Inside, an educational guide prompted people to question what they were reading, offered tips to spotting misinformation and explained the importance of seeking out real news produced by credible journalists — a timely message as the midterm elections of 2018 approached. Then we filled a highly trafficked newsstand in Manhattan with the fake publications and waited for people’s reactions. With zero media dollars spent, the Fake Newsstand generated more than 300 news stories in 103 countries.
