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.

    @Simon Power: Here goes,im going to get Lambasted,but anyway…Last night i saw mass graves in Ukraine being dug up,horrendous ,but im old enough to have seen mass graves on the media before.Tonight again i saw more, different footage ,but what struck me was the bodies were in body bags ? That is bothering me,body bags show normality,respect..we do this here in sudden death senarios etc,so on one hand ,the reteroic is a rampaging Russian army,going door to door murdering people,then why go to the trouble and expence,of placing them in body bags and dumping them in mass graves.. ?

    @Gerry campbell:
    It’s horrendous. The locals/survivors of the attack had to put the bodies of the dead in mass graves when the attackers left. They weren’t able to give them individual burials. They’re now exhuming their loved ones and giving them the respect they deserve. ❤

    @Gerry campbell: the Russians didn’t put them in the body bags, the locals did. The Russians killed people and left, then there’s too many bodies left for a regular church graveyard, and ya can’t suddenly make thousands of gravestones and do thousands of funerals. So the locals made mass graves and body bagged the deceased and buried them. Not the Russians. They just blew everything up and shot everyone, they didn’t go around collecting the bodies afterwards.
