Misinformation and the US mid-terms | in partnership with Reuters
Manage episode 346006085 series 3406922
*Partner content. In the newest edition of Press Gazette's Future of Media Explained podcast, we sat down with Reuters to hear how they're gearing up to cover what looks to be a contentious nail-biter of an election.
With the close-run midterms only a week away, the wire agency's politics and digital verification editors say some misinformation has become so entrenched it has changed the shape of their election coverage.
They told Press Gazette reporter Bron Maher about zany claims breaching into the mainstream, what goes into running multi-state election coverage and what the business case is for investing in fact-checking.
