Celebrities, athletes, politicians, influencers and even royalty can all land in the firing line.

Why does it matter? Because we invest in them.

We give them space in our homes, our budgets, our feeds, and sometimes, our hearts. We put them on pedestals. So when they fall, we want the truth. But in an age of AI-generated "evidence", misinformation, and unqualified newsfluencers, separating fact fr... more

  • Not the best journalism

    I enjoyed the P Diddy trial updates but the baldoni-lively podcast showcased a low level of journalism. It’s OK if you are clear you are just an entertainment podcast I guess… Presenting baldoni’s arguments but not his evidence, and countering them with Lively’s un-evidenced claims from 11 months ago is poor and deceiving. The next episode is going to showcase her response - here’s hoping you’ll also counter it with 11 months of facts.

  • Journalism?

    I listened the episode “Trump, the bbc, the $1bn dollar threat”, and nowhere in the episode there was a reckoning, an admission of even a mistake. The host and her guest spent the episode giving arguments on how the BBC could defend itself in a lawsuit, basically on how to cover their bum with no reckoning of any type. Do you think us listeners are stupid?. I don’t like Trump, but that is not an excuse to publish a lie. How can you claim to defend truth and objectivity if you fall in worse mista... more
