      The origin story of the Age of Disinformation unfolds through the experiences of two online media rivals, Jonah Peretti of HuffPost and BuzzFeed and Nick Denton of Gawker Media. Their relentless pursuit of attention helped unleash dark forces that would ultimately reshape the internet and American society. In the early 2000s, after the dotcom crash but before the rise of tech giants like Google and Facebook, New York City emerged as a potential tech hub. Within a few blocks, Denton’s Gawker empire and Peretti’s teams at HuffPost and BuzzFeed laid the groundwork for viral media. This era, marked by a belief in digital news as a vehicle for truth, was fueled by the notion that online activism had played a role in electing Barack Obama. Ben Smith, who later gained notoriety as BuzzFeed’s editor-in-chief, provides a sharp and witty account of this transformative period. He examines the complexities of Denton’s radical transparency versus Peretti’s click-driven approach, highlighting the unintended consequences that followed. The narrative reveals a striking irony: the internet, initially seen as a tool for progressive change, has become a catalyst for right populism, with figures like Steve Bannon and Andrew Breitbart emerging as pivotal players. By 2020, the dynamics had shifted dramatically, making this exploration of the media landscape both essential and captivating.

      Der Junge und der alte Mann leben auf einer Plattform in der Nordsee, inmitten eines riesigen Windparks, der langsam verfällt. Es gibt kein Stück Horizont ohne Windräder, doch der Park läuft nur noch mit neunundfünfzig Prozent Leistung, manchmal mehr, manchmal weniger. Öl und Schmierfett lecken aus den Rädern, die von Rost überzogen sind, manche neigen sich leicht zur Seite, die Fundamente zerfallen. Der Junge und der alte Mann sollen mit ihrem Wartungsboot den Park instand halten. Aber mit den ihnen zur Verfügung stehenden Werkzeugen und Ersatzteilen können sie immer nur notdürftige Reparaturen vornehmen. Übersetzungsräder austauschen, Risse schweißen, Kabel neu verlegen. Alle drei Monate bringt ein Versorgungsschiff neue Ersatzteile, meist jedoch nicht … Der Junge wurde von der »Firma« auf die Plattform geschickt, um den Platz seines Vaters einzunehmen, der einst spurlos verschwunden ist. Der alte Mann hüllt sich darüber in Schweigen. Als der Junge durch Zufall ein zweites Wartungsboot findet, zusammen mit einer Karte vom Festland, beginnt er seine Flucht zu planen. Zwischen dem Jungen und dem alten Mann beginnt ein Katz-und-Maus-Spiel.

      'The Road meets Waiting for Godot: powerful, unforgettable, unique' Melissa Harrison, author of At Hawthorn Time.Doggerland is a superbly gripping debut novel about loneliness and hope, nature and survival - set on an off-shore windfarm in the not-so-distant future. 'His father's breath had been loud in the small room. It had smelled smoky, or maybe more like dust. 'I'll get out,' he'd said. 'I'll come back for you, ok?' The boy remembered that; had always remembered it. And, for a time, he'd believed it too.' In the North Sea, far from what remains of the coastline, a wind farm stretches for thousands of acres. The Boy, who is no longer really a boy, and the Old Man, whose age is unguessable, are charged with its maintenance. They carry out their never-ending work as the waves roll, dragging strange shoals of flotsam through the turbine fields. Land is only a memory. So too is the Boy's father, who worked on the turbines before him, and disappeared. The boy has been sent by the Company to take his place, but the question of where he went and why is one for which the Old Man will give no answer. As the Old Man dredges the sea for lost things, the Boy sifts for the truth of his missing father. Until one day, from the limitless water, a plan for escape emerges...Doggerland is a haunting and beautifully compelling story of loneliness and hope, nature and survival.
