Description
Thesis Statement: The broad landscape of digital media constrains critical thinking & reflection, diverting attention away from the facts.
My poster-driven campaign worked to suggest different ways of perceiving information to its audience; in a time where so much false information is being taken in as fact. I typeset several main points from a FactCheck.org article “How to Spot Fake News” by Eugene Kiely & Lori Robertson, then hand-lettered/wrote the top 50 circulated fake news headlines in 2016, compiled by Buzzfeed, on top. Recontextualized onto posters, the headlines are meant to spark curiosity, provoke deeper research, and make facts great again.
