Abstract

In today’s digital media environment, how a story is told can be no less important than whether the story is true. Dmitry Chernobrov explores how states use humour strategically as a tool of post-truth public diplomacy to promote narratives that advance state interests, deflect criticism, and shape opinions about contested events.
