'Meet the Press' to air special episode Sunday, Dec. 29, about spread and weaponization of 'fake news'

This coming Sunday, Dec. 29, NBC's "Meet the Press" with Chuck Todd will air a special episode about the role of "fake news" in politics.

"The use of 'alternative facts,' a term first heard on Meet the Press in 2017, has become a common occurrence in American politics. From 'whataboutism' and gaslighting to unsubstantiated claims of fake news and attacks on the Fourth Estate, 'Meet the Press' will take an in-depth look at the techniques of spreading disinformation, how it’s designed to create chaos and confusion, and its negative effects on the public," says an NBC news release.
