Manage episode 332660353 series 2509826
In a world full of misinformation, which media sources can you trust?
Enter The Conversation, an independent source of news analysis and informed comment written by academic experts, working with professional journalists who help share their knowledge with the world and deliver truthful stories that anyone can read and understand.
To learn more about this unique resource, I spoke with Chris Waiting, Chief Executive Officer of The Conversation UK.

- How The Conversation addresses the decline in media trust
- How The Conversation differs from mainstream media
- The Future of Journalism in the age of misinformation
- The rise of Fake News
