Truth, and Nothing But

In today's world, facts are everywhere, but instead of fostering informed discussions, many people push their own "facts." Technology, like the broom in Goethe’s Sorcerer’s Apprentice, has run amok. Wouldn't it be better if open-source information and smart tech clarified issues instead of complicating them? Fortunately, people like Eliot Higgins, founder of Bellingcat, are working to achieve this. Listen to this episode of New Thinking for a New World as Higgins discusses how Bellingcat separates fact from fiction through online open-source investigation.
