Is our news diet making us ill? As the mainstream print media retrenches and new kinds of partisan, “activist”, corporate and fact-free “alternative” media fill the vacuum, the media we consume is full of more hidden additives than ever. What can be done about it? Is it enough to check facts, or is the increasing overpopulation of factoids, and think-tanks and activist groups or fact-checking their enemies, part of the problem?

Jimmy Wales is founder of Wikipedia, and founder of crowd-funded news platform WikiTribune. He came to the Centre of Investigative Journalism to think about how to fix our broken news industry.

This discussion is part of our Logan CIJ Talks Series and took place at Goldsmiths, University of London, on 02 November 2017.
