Summary 內容: 英國脫歐公投、特朗普當選總統等事件,令一眾依靠社交平台傳遞及接收資訊的網民大跌眼鏡。在意見領袖充斥的網絡世界,有方法分辨評論的質素嗎?當社會越來越二元分化,我們該如何走出「同溫層」?三位熱衷時政的網絡評論家,將為輿論界作一次前瞻與回顧。
本論壇為系列論壇《九十後的時代悲歌》之一。

Events such as Brexit and the election of Trump have surprised netizens across the globe. Amidst the Internet filled with key opinion leaders, is there a way to discern the quality of the commentaries? How can we escape the stratosphere when the society becomes increasingly polarised? Three keen political commentators are invited to share their views on this heated issue.
