The ARC presents this special screening of Aaron Sorkin and David Fincher’s 2010 hit, The Social Network. Researchers from the University of Glasgow look back at the early days of social media to discuss how things have changed.
With a panel discussion led by the University of Glasgow’s new Information Integrity Research Network, we’ll reflect on the film’s themes of power, influence, and connection, and consider what they reveal about misinformation and trust in the digital age.
