#20 Fighting Covid Fakes (with Ariel Bogle)

This week we talk about one hacker’s struggle to alert former PM Tony Abbott to a huge security oversight on Instagram. We’re also joined by Ariel Bogle, reporter with ABC Science, to talk about her three-part series Click-Sick taking a closer look at misinformation in Australia and beyond. Ariel talks us through the human impacts of health misinformation, and some of the challenges of reporting on the digital sphere.

Check out Science Friction to catch up with the series.
