A free webinar on Friday, April 16, will discuss tools and strategies journalists can use to address the spread of false information, focusing on lessons learned from 2020. The hour-long webinar will begin at noon ET.
Andrew Rockway of the American Press Institute will moderate a discussion featuring Shana Black of Black Girl Media, Anjanette Delgado of the Detroit Free Press, Karen Mahabir of The Associated Press, and Nicolás Rios of Documented. Register here; if you are unable to attend, register anyway and they'll send you a recording afterwards. The webinar is sponsored by API and the News Leaders Association.
Rockway recently wrote a related article with advice for newsrooms dealing with the spread of misinformation. One tip discussed in the article: look beyond the obvious platforms to track misinformation, because it's not just happening in public posts on Facebook.
When the Detroit Free Press began looking at other social-media sites such as Parler and MeWe and joined closed groups on Facebook and elsewhere, they found a wealth of news tips and sources of misinformation they knew they would need to address, Rockway reports. Read more here.
