About this Event
Misinformation has evolved far beyond simple fake news. Today's digital deception includes AI-generated content, deepfakes, and coordinated inauthentic behaviour that's harder than ever to detect.
The Canadian Journalism Foundation, in partnership with MediaSmarts presents a free Media LIteracy Week J-Talks event.
Join renowned digital media expert Craig Silverman as he maps this new landscape of digital deception and reveals practical defence strategies for journalists and citizens. Discover how modern verification tools like Indicator fit into today's newsroom toolkit, and learn investigative techniques to separate authentic content from sophisticated fakes.
The evening features an in-depth conversation with Carolyn Jarvis exploring Silverman's frontline experience tracking misinformation campaigns and his vision for building more resilient information ecosystems.
Whether you're a journalist, media professional, or engaged citizen, this event will equip you with the knowledge and tools needed to navigate our increasingly complex digital world.
