Misinformation seems to spread as fast as celebrity gossip, circling around political and pop culture stories alike. So MediaJustice is using pop culture to tackle it. A limited series podcast Actually…Hold Up uses familiar stories in pop culture to show how the media landscape spreads misinformation and how consumers can fight back. Episodes dive into topics like the Depp v Heard Trial and the Hollywood writers’ strike to break down the Media Manipulation Cycle. The series features communities who challenge misinformation and invites others to interrupt the cycle.
