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.

If they’re not working stop their salaries – that should soften their cough…..
@Nora McElhinney: Stop taking ur seats in a foreign country shame on u all
amazing that life continues as normal without a sitting executive….
Obviously the world could cope just fine with way less politicians….
Basically it’s a strike and striker,s don’t get paid while on strike as far as I know just a few pounds from the union
@FlopFlipU: But only one party is on strike, while the others continue to show up for work. Interesting how a new poll in todays Belfast Telegraph has found both SF and Alliance, and the Greens support up, with all unionist party support down.
It found that in the event of a new election, (which will have to happen if the DUP continue to boycott) SF will come in first again with support of over 30%, with the DUP dipping below 20%. Jeffrey and the DUP might do well to reconsider their approach before their supports continues to drop – Because at this rate they will even lose out on the Deputy First Minister position.
@Angela McCarthy: that cannot happen without changes to GFA. Even if Alliance party continue to increase, as a non designated party they don’t factor into cross party agreements.
@M Bowe: * cross community agreements/ safe guards.
@M Bowe: Thats not the point – if the Alliance out-poll the DUP, it will further damage their credibility and prestige within the unionist community, even if they take the Deputy position. The DUP and unionism overall can definitely do without such a scenario in the face of a coming border poll.
only the DUP can change that, but sure they know best!
It’s a bad Situation
have your say
