Why are facts and statistics disparaged and dismissed, now more than ever?

Why do people trust fake news? If we have 'had enough of experts' who should we listen to?

Could this be an opportunity to look at not just society but our own lives in a different way?

Whoever controls the narrative is the one who is in control. Time’s Lie analyses the history, the science and the philosophy behind the creation of linear stories, or ‘Narrativisation’ as this book dubs it.
