In an era of post-truth, deepfakes, AI misinformation, and underfunded newsrooms, guardians of truth are more important than ever. The New Yorker’s Head Research Editor Fergus McIntosh leads an exacting, AI-free operation, which doesn’t just check every article, story, poem, cartoon, and piece of cover art for essential truth, but also has to adjudicate every day on what exactly constitutes ‘fact’ in the first place. He joins us with compelling tales from the frontline of preserving objective reality. Chaired by Lucia Osborne-Crowley.
