Abstract

Educators across disciplines—including journalism, public relations, and advertising—have struggled with the potential influence of a “post-truth” era on their lesson plans, learning outcomes, and on epistemological examinations of content and context of their fields. This special issue addresses the challenges and solutions for working and teaching some 4 years into the most-recent age of “post-truth”.
