    While we obsess over shiny new infrastructure projects, America's existing systems are quietly falling apart—and the political incentives that created this crisis run deeper than you think.

    While everyone debates misinformation on social media, a quieter revolution is reshaping how we decide what's true: AI-generated academic papers, purchased journal citations, and algorithmic peer review systems. We examine how the infrastructure of institutional credibility is being gamed—and why the real threat isn't fake news, but fake expertise. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
