On Tuesday, disgraced former CNN anchor Brian Stelter took to the stage at the World Economic Forum's Annual Meeting to chair a panel on "disinformation."
The panelists claimed that the spread of fake news was among the greatest threats currently facing society, and praised Europe for its strict internet regulations.
"How does this discussion of disinformation relate to everything else happening here today in Davos?" Stelter asked the panel, which included the New York Times' Arthur Gregg Sulzberger, European Commission VP Věra Jourová, Rep. Seth Moulton, and Internews CEO Jeanne Bourgault.
"If you look at this question of disinformation," Sulzberger replied, "I think it maps basically to every other challenge that we're grappling with as a society, and certainly the most existential among them."
"What it attacks is trust," he continued, suggesting that a lack of trust will result in the disintegration of society. "People fracture along tribal lines, and that immediately undermines pluralism, and the undermining of pluralism is probably the most dangerous thing that can happen to a democracy."
Sulzberger went on to claim that those who invoke terms such as "fake news" and "enemy of the people" were following in the footsteps of repressive regimes such as Nazi Germany and Stalinist Russia. He also contended that the information ecosystem had become poisoned to such an extent that it would require years of sustained effort to get things back on track.

Yah yah yah. Anything the left disagrees with is “disinformation.”
When I want any crap from the EuroPeons, I’ll unscrew their heads and dip it out.
Brian Stelter thinks he will be one of those “special” people that when we have actually become a socialist world will be one of the elites. Hahahahahahahah! He will be in for a big surprise! What gets me is these people actually believe this crap they are spewing!
LOL! Stetler at the wef? Really? Proof positive they’re up to no good. As if we needed more right? Can you say bottom of the cesspool?
The turds always float in the septic tank..................
He’s a communist who protected ABC when it came to covering up Epstein and got so many things wrong about Trump.
Brian Stelter is a potato.
I wouldn’t doubt that in 10 years we have a firewall like China and the American military will actively target Elon’s Starlink.
Davos is a bigger threat, because it’s full of arrogant, stupid fW#$s like Stelter, with lots of money and power.
Brian Stelter is a clown, and oddly enough he looks like one
That voice is as annoying as his face....................
You can’t make this stuff up...
Now European regulation the of the internet boils down to making rules so strict that American companies can’t help violate them and giving them big fines in order to close budget gaps
