PANDU WIYOGA UNTUK KOMPAS

A member of Prabowo-Sandiaga\'s campaign team, Ratna Sarumpaet (right), gives clarification regarding the reporting, which claimed that she had been assaulted at Ratna Sarumpaet Residence, Bukit Duri, Jakarta, Wednesday (3/10/2018). During the press conference Ratna Sarumpaet said to have fabricated news about the assault in Bandung, West Java, on September 21, 2018, but in reality she underwent facial surgery.

In his 2017 book “The Death of Expertise”, Thomas M. Nichols highlighted the paradoxes of a digital society. The abundance of information in this digital era is, apparently, not accompanied by people’s maturity in taking actions and making decisions.

The relative ease of communication that the digital era brings does not necessarily improve people’s critical reasoning, investigation into facts and rationale in making decisions.
