Zoom video meeting
Registration page: Because Facts Matter: Fact-checking in Science Writing
At this NSWA-hosted event, three expert fact-checkers pull back the curtain to reveal how professional fact-checking works and the rising challenges these defenders of truth are facing. We’ll hear from an independent, freelance fact-checker, another who spent 30 years on staff at Scientific American, and a third who cofounded Snopes, where fact-checking is the business.
