This week, we revisit our conversation with the head of University of Washington’s new Center for an Informed Public, Jevin West, who’s best known for his course, “Calling Bullsh*t,” a class that teaches students how to, among other things, discern and dispatch with disinformation. West says that in many instances, there’s a moral imperative for calling out BS when you see it.
