We live in an age where access to vast amounts is right in our pockets, and literally everybody can become a publisher of information on social media, blogs, and news sites. This proliferation of information has profoundly impacted both stock markets and our political process. But the markets, it seems, have digested the abundance of information quite well, while our political process is in shambles thanks in part to the prevalence of misinformation on social media and other platforms.
