Another great NPR story.👆

Trump and republicans tried to kill America's only "not corporate owned" stations.

A keyboard, above which is a "check" being filled out, sometime in the eighties. Later she dialed a phone.

I wanna hold your hands with too many fingers, no one said or wrote.

X rolled out location transparency to millions of users, only to pull key data within 24 hours because it was "not 100%" accurate. You cannot fight disinformation with bad data. Efficiency isn't just about shipping fast; it's about shipping code that doesn't immediately require a rollback.

Disinformation is networked. Journalism is usually siloed. That is why we lose. The Ghana Fact-Checking Coalition proves that "truth" isn't just about accuracy; it is about logistics. Let’ s align on how to fight misinformation!

A collage of different images from a December 2024 workshop. Several scientists sit around tables listening to a speaker. Two scientists sit across from each other chatting as part of a role-playing activity. A woman with brown hair gives a talk with a slide that reads "The Writer's Practice." There are several handwritten notes that list different stakeholders and targets for science communication, such as "Scientists," "physicians," "parents," "fathers," "funders," and various key words whose contexts are not visible: "lactation/milk scientists" "Curriculum design: med school, pre med," "clarify motives," and "knowledge."

Scale. - Scale destroys trust - Scale creates targets - You cannot automate counter disinformation work - Work together, support each other and - Add your voice to the chorus - teach lateral reading #LIANZA2025 #scale #misinfo #disinfo #lateralreading

Good information seeking questions to counter #misinfo #disinfo 1. Who is behind the information? 2. What does the evidence say? Is the evidence relevant? Us the evidence reliable? 3. What do others say? All these build on TRUST. Be authentic, be genuine and be there. #LIANZA2025

#LLM and #GenAI makes it easier to generate disinformation. Hallucinations could become misinformation. LLM could be "infected" with disinfo by state actors. #LIANZA2025 #misinfo
