Title: "Fake News" BBC Project
Post by Administrator on Nov 9^th, 2018, 12:38pm

The "Press Gazette" reports here a new BBC project:-

"Beyond Fake News"

The Press Gazette reports says..."The corporation will launch its Beyond Fake News project on Monday with a series of documentaries, special reports and features across its TV, radio and online networks in Europe, the Americas, Africa, India and Asia Pacific.

Jamie Angus, director of the BBC World Service Group, said he wanted to fulfil a pledge made earlier this year to “move beyond just talking about the global ‘fake news’ threat, and take concrete steps to address it”."
