The ‘Sudeten card’ influenced the first direct election of the President. We can expect disinformation attacks this time, too, says Štěpán Mikula
In 2013 it was the Sudeten Germans, five years later it was migrants. Disinformation and fake news have played a significant role in both presidential elections so far. Will it also influence the current presidential election? According to Štěpán Mikula from the Faculty of Economics and Administration at Masaryk University and the SYRI Institute, who, among other topics, researches electoral behaviour, it is very likely.
