Tim Love is the former Vice Chairman of Omnicom Group, and a man who has devoted a lifetime to loving advertising, marketing, and thinking differently. When he saw storm clouds on the horizon of his chosen profession. he responded by questioning those with the greatest vision. The result is a new book entitled,

Discovering Truth: How to Navigate Between Fact & Fiction in an Overwhelming Social Media World. The book grew out of a series of podcast interviews about the effects of social media with marketing executives, industry experts, academics, and well-known people throughout the world. Discovering Truth is an insight-filled exploration of the role of media in communications and how today’s social media affects trust in institutions and divides an increasingly polarized society. From the rise of fake news to destabilizing foreign and domestic extremist content, more information does not necessarily lead to more facts.

Most importantly, the book offers ways to navigate the discovery of truth in a world where technology platforms instantaneously share and feed misinformation. This could not be timelier, as the book offers a path to a future where we all might better discern between fact and fiction… if we are willing to do the work, ask the right questions, and see more than one perspective.

Discovering Truth: How to Navigate Between Fact & Fiction in an Overwhelming Social Media World by Tim Love is published by Internationalist Press, the book publishing division of The Internationalist.
