Public ignorance and political misinformation have always been matters of concern for democratic theorists. Only more recently have these concerns made their way into more general public discourse on politics, civic life, and society. As citizens learn to navigate information environments with a greater awareness for potential deception and partisan slant, it is critical to understand what this navigation looks like, how individuals are responding to the (mis)information they encounter, and ultimately how successful they are at keeping themselves and others correctly informed. In this dissertation, I contribute to the study of political misinformation by investigating the public's relationship with misinformation from a number of new perspectives. In the first empirical chapter, I analyze survey data to better understand the types of information people place their trust in, and the types about which they express skepticism. I then go further, showing how perceptions of political deception influence broader political attitudes and behaviors. In the second empirical chapter, I use a conjoint design to identify what aspects of news stories containing misinformation individual are drawn towards. In the final empirical chapter, I use both a conjoint design and a survey experiment to understand how citizens can engage in effective social corrections, helping others in their social networks combat political misperceptions. As citizens find themselves inhabiting an increasingly complex and potentially deceptive information environment, these insights help to make sense of how political misinformation is understood by the mass public and what fixes the public is both capable and willing to engage to maintain democracy.
