As Michigan: We Need to Talk launches its Michigan Decides series ahead of the 2026 election, Stephen Henderson asks how voters can sort fact from fiction in an increasingly complicated information environment.
Bridge Michigan journalists Jonathan Oosting and Jordyn Hermani take listeners inside their fact-checking process, including claims emerging from Michigan’s U.S. Senate race and the growing use of AI-generated political content. Longtime national political journalist and Knight-Wallace Fellow Libby Casey discusses social media creators, trust and the new challenges AI poses for voters. And PolitiFact’s Caleb McCullough looks at misinformation nationally and explains what he’s finding as he fact-checks Michigan campaigns.
Plus, Michigan listeners share the political mailers, advertisements and online claims that have made them stop and ask: Can I actually believe this?
