Several years ago Bill Aspray and I wrote Fake News Nation, as part of our ongoing studies of modern uses of information, misinformation, fake info and conspiracies, arguing that these topics had a long history dating back almost 200 years before the Internet's influence.  Then 5 years later the problems we identified had continued to intensify, hence our publisher just brought out a paperback edition for $25.  First, thanks to those of you who supported our work and also by buying the original edition.  Second, Rowman  and Littlefield is offering a 30% discount off the price of the paperback edition if ordered directly from it, using code RLFANDF30.  It might now be affordable for your students at $17.50; otherwise AMazon etc will have it available in mid-November.  Again, many thanks for your ongoing support of our work, for the kind reviews a number of you were asked to write, and for acquiring the original volume.
