Last year we launched the Disinfopedia, a "wiki" website designed
to mobilize hundreds of volunteers to help us investigate and expose front
groups and propaganda campaigns. The Disinfopedia is an experiment in
participatory investigative journalism, and the experiment seems to be
succeeding. One recent example is the Disinfopedia listing for Swift Boat
Veterans for Truth. Not only is the Disinfopeda entry on the group extensive, up to
date and well documented, it's being widely read by thousands daily and it appears at or near
the top in Google. There will always be propaganda
and deception, but Disinfopedia is proving a powerful tool for getting to
the truth. We invite you to help us to research, edit and write the Disinfopedia; click here to learn how to get started.
