Fact or Fiction: Combating the Spanish Disinformation Crisis
Distinguish between what information is real and what is fake. When information from our friends, loved ones, and other community members seems suspect, how do we verify its accuracy? San Diego Public Library and National Association of Hispanic Journalists partner to bring Spanish speakers the tools they need to detect disinformation in the news, on social media, and on other platforms. Panelists include professional broadcast reporters, professors, doctors, and a city information officer. NAHJ will moderate each panel. This series of programs will be conducted in Spanish. Register today.
