[Chapter-delegates] Video Recording of Fake News: annoying symptom or life-threatening disease?

[Richard Hill]

Dear Olivier,

 

Thank you very much for posting this link, and for organizing the event.  I found the discussions to be excellent and well worth listening too.  >From my point of view, the discussions you had were very similar to the discussions we had in the European Chapters meeting in February in Amsterdam.  As was said in both venues, one of the key issues is to make people aware of the fact that not all information is reliable, so it is up to each individual to exercise due diligence in order to be well informed.

 

Thanks again and best,

Richard

Dear Colleagues,

Fake news has been a buzzword since the US election provoked a debate at
presidential level. But fake news are neither new, nor are they
geographically constrained to the United States. This global topic
stretches the limits of self-regulation as stakeholders grapple with
identifying “fake news” and figuring out what might be done about it.
>From the traditional Press to blogs, short messages and on-line videos,
this topic has challenged everyone, from human editors to machine
algorithms, from Roman times until now.

We have assembled a Team of academics, journalists, content and social
media industry, civil society and politicians to discuss fake news with
our audience.
