18 Jun Debate Fake News from the Past at XVI KROKODIL Festival
FAKE NEWS FROM THE PAST is the title of a new program segment that KROKODIL is launching at this year’s festival. It will commence with a panel discussion in the debate zone on Sunday, June 23rd at 12:45 PM! We will discuss media literacy in today’s Serbia, disinformation, and efforts to combat it by some European Union member states. We’ll explore where the Western Balkans stands in these efforts, delve into deepfake content and political campaigns, examine attempts at information manipulation, and efforts to alter basic cognitive knowledge among citizens, especially in the post-pandemic era. Additionally, we’ll discuss which information sources young people trust today, and what “fact-checking” means now when it seems that most leading online credibility verification tools are losing ground.
Moderated by KROKODIL Board Member Milena Berić, this panel featuring writer Arnon Grunberg, Executive Editor of Istinomer Milijana Rogač, Faculty of Dramatic Arts professor Ana Martinoli, strategic communications and public diplomacy expert and former Head of Operations for the Western Balkans Jasna Lambert, and historian Dubravka Stojanović, will attempt to provide answers to these and many other questions.
