[Podcast] Backed Facts vs Fake News
We’re living in the era of fake news, or at least, the fear of fake news. Stories that would have once been reserved for salacious supermarket tabloids are now being shared like wildfire across social media and discussed seriously on the nightly news.
It’s bad for readers (who do you trust?) bad for media (how do you prove your credibility?) and bad for businesses, who don’t want to get caught up in a phony but potentially damaging story. Even a fake story could be a massive PR risk.
