dc.description.abstract | Facing a shutdown of her online news outlet, Nobel laureate Maria Ressa calls for journalists to band together to fight an online information ecosystem ‘built on lies laced with hate.’ Quick take:<br>- Speaking at the East-West Center’s 2022 International Media Conference, Ressa vowed to resist a new government order to shut down her news site Rappler.<br>- Social media platforms’ business models “reward anger and hate,” she said, leading to a frightening global rise in authoritarianism.<br>- The only way for independent journalists to counter this, according to Ressa, is to work together on fighting malicious falsehoods. | |
