Episode description

In this episode we talk about the world of political misinformation, news reporting, fact-checking and building trust in data. Paweł Terpiłowski, Chief Editor of the Polish fact-checking organisation Demagog and Kerstin Hänsel, Head of Communications Strategy and Social Media at the German Federal Statistical Office (Destatis), discuss these topics with Jonathan Elliott. Together with Dean Vuletic, Information and Communication Officer at Eurostat, and Francis Elliott, former political editor of The Times, they talk about why accurate reporting and balanced analysis is a tough business. They also give us an insight into the battles of journalists and statisticians against dis- and misinformation.
