A big thank you to the organisers @skruikemeier.bsky.social @mauritsmeijers.bsky.social!
Yesterday I had the pleasure to give a keynote at the NWO Expert Meeting on Disinformation. What an honor! And what a joy to re/connect with colleagues across fields about the challenges ahead and ways to address them. I can't say that we fully got this just yet but it's clear we're on it together 🤝

New article: Why do citizens choose to read fact-checks about the Russian war in Ukraine? Our study shows that citizens in 19 countries (n = 19,037) are more inclined to seek truth rather than confirm existing beliefs. journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10....
🚨Publication alert:
News users are likely to regard information on the Russian war in Ukraine as false. Info is seen as deliberative deception and Russian sources are substantially more likely to be blamed for falsehoods.

In times of crisis, the information landscape changes: often mis/disinformation proliferate.
Christofer Talvitie, Michael Hameleers, Marina Turin and I published a white-paper with evidence-based recommendations for factchecking in times of crisis.
