Open Newsroom invitation: The EU frontline against Russian disinformation

Get involved with our reporting on disinformation by signing up for our Open Newsroom webinar.

THE GOOD INFORMATION Project invites you to get involved with our reporting on misinformation and disinformation in the online age. 

You can now register for our free Open Newsroom webinar ‘The EU frontline against Russian disinformation,’ featuring a panel discussion and Q&A session with experts Aoife Gallagher, disinformation analyst with the Institute for Strategic Dialogue, Tommaso Canetta, deputy director of Pagella Politica, an Italian fact-checking outlet and co-ordinator of the fact-checking activities inside EDMO, and The Journal FactCheck reporter Brianna Parkins.

The session promises to be an invaluable look not only at the macro approaches to stopping disinformation taken by the European Union, but also a helpful primer on what individuals can do to identify and combat disinformation in their own personal sphere. 

The discussion will be moderated by The Journal deputy editor Christine Bohan. 

The Open Newsroom will take place at 1pm on Wednesday, April 20 and you can register for free now at this link.

This work is also co-funded by Journal Media and a grant programme from the European Parliament. Any opinions or conclusions expressed in this work are the author’s own. The European Parliament has no involvement in nor responsibility for the editorial content published by the project. For more information, see here

    see how ridiculous this sounds? hate knows no religion. only hate. we, collectively as a society, have to decide to stop pitting one side against the other if we truly want to tackle terrorism on both sides.

    @Nigel Garvey: I couldn’t believe what he done. To show the video from inside the mosque on a large screen to an audience was reckless. To then say Aussies will go home in caskets like their grandads in WW1 is an incitement to violence. I’m surprised the international media didnt make more of it. Could you imagine of Trump had done that?

    @ciaran111: I can’t wait until they get into the EU. I’d happily pay their doles so I can worry about my kids commuting into town every day…

    Why, the vast majority of media in the world is refusing to print either the names or pictures of these rotten ba@$##ds, does the Journal repeatedly do so??

    Since 9/11 tens of thousands worldwide murdered, butchered, beheaded, stabbed, burned alive, raped, thrown of building, stoned, all in the name of Islam and one backlash in New Zealand is anyone surprised ? Just imagine if the shoe were on the other foot and Muslims had been targeted by right wing extremists for the past 20 years what would the likely outcome be ?
