Infokrieger - Die neuen rechten Medienmacher (2019)

The Internet is an important medium for disseminating information and maintaining interpersonal relationships. But who determines the political discourse that takes place in social networks? Who determines what is relevant in digital space and what stands out from the mass of data? Who decides which reports we believe and what we dismiss as fake news? And to what extent can our perception be manipulated with the help of algorithms and artificially generated outrage? A team of journalists deciphers how the new right-wing ideology scene and conspiracy theorists manipulate the media system and how opinions and discussions are poisoned online. They delve deeply into the Internet, its structures, data and weak points and provide a unique insight into the digital machine room of the new right-wing scene.
