Episode Topic: Visual Investigations: Innovation in StorytellingA picture’s worth a thousand words. So goes the old adage, which is as true in the disinformation sphere as it is in any other. Visuals are a uniquely powerful medium to convey information to humans, which makes them a uniquely powerful tool for bad-faith actors out to manipulate the public. As media and journalism shift toward a greater emphasis on visual content, new approaches to storytelling will be essential to ensuring that audiences can still discern truth from falsehood.
