Abstract
Matt Jones spoke to an authority on fake news, Peter Oldring, a writer and performer on the weekly Saturday-morning CBC Radio One program This Is That, to talk about satirical news in the era of post-truth. The interview revealed how ready audiences are to invest in even the most absurd ideas and stories provided they are dressed in the costume of CBC’s ‘newsy’ legitimacy and carried out with convincing naturalism.
