6El mayor peligro del acceso ilimitado a la inofrmación es que siempre hay alguien que la acepta sin cuestionar.

En la prensa escrita y en la digital, en las redes sociales y en los medios tradicionales, un torrente de mentiras, propaganda e inexactitudes --motivadas por el afán de dinero, notoriedad o poder-- se mezcla y confunde con el reporte de hechos reales. Jamás ha sido tan fácil ser engañado: a la censura y el espionaje se han sumado la sobreinformación y las fake news.

En este escenario, que parece sacado de una distopía orwelliana, la ética periodística, la confirmación y el rigor parecen reliquias olvidadas.

El fenómeno es poderosísimo y ya define el rumbo del mundo: en buena parte gracias a la difusión de «noticias falsas, Donald Trump ganó la Presidencia de Estados Unidos.

Y no es un fenómeno ajeno. En México, las fake news son pan de todos los días, como lo demostró el «caso Frida Sofía . Ya jugaron un papel clave en la elección de 2012 y sin duda serán protagonistas este 2018.

En este libro, el periodista Esteban Illades examina decenas de casos en los que la confusión y la falsedad han llevado a resultados catastróficos, y explora las razones de que --en plena Era del Conocimiento-- sigamos creyendo datos imposibles y, por el contrario, negando evidencias irrefutables.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

The gravest danger in unlimited access to information is that there's always someone who accepts it without question.

In print and digital press, on both social and traditional media, a torrent of lies, propaganda, and inaccuracies gets confused with the reporting of real facts. In this Orwellian scenario, journalistic ethics, corroboration, and accuracy seem like forgotten relics.

The phenomenon is powerful and is already affecting world events: thanks in good part to "fake news," Donald Trump won the U.S. presidency. And it's not an isolated event; in Mexico, fake news is an everyday event, as evidenced in the case of "Frida Sofía." In this book, journalist Esteban Illades examines dozens of cases in which confusion and falsehoods have led to catastrophic results, and explores the reasons why--in the heart of the Age of Knowledge--we continue to believe impossible facts and deny irrefutable evidence.
