Sinopsis
In this episode I look at how the reaction from Russell Brand's followers reveals that, despite the 'culture' of open-mindedness his channel and persona purport to foster, the reality is the exact opposite. I also look at how social media has created a bizarre situation where people now leap to conclusions before they know any of the facts: we're so fast to react now, this isn't just the age of Disinformation or Misinformation, but also the age of Pre-Information, where people are proud to have an opinion knowing they don't yet know enough.
