Summary
A YA Nonfiction book about the history of Fake News and tips for how to spot it. Fake news is not a new phenomenon. Otis, a former CIA analyst, takes readers from the ancient Egyptians to the founding fathers to the present day to show the history and impact of misinformation over the centuries.
