There is just 12 days to go before the United States Presidential election. It’s being billed as the most crucial election in US history, in terms of America’s own democracy, and its role in the world. This week, and in the coming two weeks, we’ll be looking at some of the key discussions and issues. The term “fake news”, popularised by Donald Trump, became mainstream during the 2016 election. But misinformation and disinformation on social media – some of it provided by hostile countries - is increasingly plaguing politics, and not only in the US. More on that later.

The first televised presidential debate between Donald Trump and Joe Biden on 30th September was chaotic. The debate held this morning Hong Kong time was more orderly and there was a chance for the candidates to describe their policies – whether they made full use of this opportunity is, like the debate itself, debatable and with me to talk about this and what’s at stake in this election is Peter Beattie, professor at the Faculty of Social Science of the Chinese University of Hong Kong.
