In the May issue, the editor’s letter stated that, “according to the 2019 Trust Barometer Report by marketing rm Edelman, 73 percent of those surveyed are concerned about fake news—an increase of 6 percent since last year in Canada.” While it is correct that 73 percent are concerned, the article did not note that Edelman surveyed people from around the world; the percentage of Canadians concerned about fake news is 71. This is in fact an increase of 6 percentage points from 2018. The Walrus regrets the error.
