Meme wars : the untold story of the online battles upending democracy in America / Joan Donovan, Emily Dreyfuss, Brian Friedberg.

Donovan, Joan, (author.). Dreyfuss, Emily, (author.). Friedberg, Brian, (author.).

Summary:

"Meme Wars is the first major account of how "Stop the Steal" went from online to real life, from the wires to the weeds. Leading media expert Joan Donovan, PhD, veteran tech journalist Emily Dreyfuss, and cultural ethnographer Brian Friedberg pull back the curtain on the digital war rooms in which a vast collection of antiestablishmentarians bond over hatred of liberal government and media. Together as a motley reactionary army, they use memes and social media to seek out new recruits, spread ideologies,and remake America according to their desires. A political thriller with the substance of a rigorous history, Meme Wars is the astonishing story of how extremists are yanking our culture and politics to the right"-- Provided by publisher.
