Workshop | Building a global database of fact checks

Pauline Moullot Libération and Jacques Pezet Correctiv. CheckNews is a new platform of fact-checking where journalists respond to their readers question. We don’t choose what we fact-check, we check what they ask us to. The next step is to tun it into a collaborative platform, where fact-checkers from any country can access and share the content of the others. Where fact-checkers can also work together on temporary project. The more fact-checking becomes central in XXI century journalism, the more we need to work together, to make it more powerful and increase our readers’ trust. In this workshop, we will explain how we want to turn CheckNews in an international platform, how it will work and how you can join the project.

Meeting | Supporting EU fact-checkers

Alberto Rabbachin European Commission, Paolo Cesarini, European Commission.
[LIMITED TO EU FACT-CHECKERS]
As announced in the Communication on online disinformation (link) adopted by the Commission on the 26th of April, the European Commission would like to support the creation of a European network of independent fact-checkers to establish common working methods, exchange best practices, achieve the broadest possible coverage across the EU, and participate in joint fact-checking and related activities. The need to create such network was expressed in several multistakeholder consultations as well as reported in the HLEG report. As a first step, the Commission would like to design and roll-out a secured web space (EU Fact Checker Portal) in order to enable an EU-wide collaboration among fact-checkers. In a second step, a secure European online platform on disinformation will be developed by extending capacity and capabilities of the EU Fact Checker Portal. In particular the platform will extend the network of fact-checking organisations as well as include research activities by involving academic research experts on online disinformation. This will enable the network of fact-checkers to act as trusted flaggers. It will also facilitate a deeper understanding of online disinformation and the design of evidence-based strategies for further limiting its spread. This workshop will be an opportunity to debate on the creation of a European network of fact-checkers. The aim is to collect views on what services the portal, and later the platform, should provide to concretely support European fact-checking activities and the creation of an integrated network of fact-checkers and acadenics. The debate should also touch upon the issue of the portal/platform governance (i.e. terms of access and service) in order to ensure full independence from any political entity and public authority.

Workshop | Advanced Internet Research

Henk van Ess Bellingcat. Fast and Furious Fact Finding (1) – with Facebook Dutch born Henk van Ess (twitter.com/henkvaness) does some fast and furious fact checking in Facebook. How do you find hidden friends in Facebook (Manchester Bombing) ? How do you find the precise profile of a prisoned coder (Cambridge Analytics)? What do you do when a terrorist profile is deleted (Las Vegas shooting, Jihadi John)? How do you find people in Facebook with very common last names (case NBC News)? And how do you investigate people in Facebook when you just have a first name and a city? (revenge porn) Facebook removed verification via e-mail in April 2017 – can you fix that? And while we are at it: how do you find out which US senators are followed by which Russians, how do you search for certain keywords from certain persons and what is the most important Facebook Formula you will ever see for your daily work? Expect some amazing Houdini-acts, “inspired” by daily deadlines.

Workshop | Building a global database of hoaxes

Alexandre Pouchard Le Monde. “Who will fact-check fact-checkers ?”, are we often asked. We, fact-checkers, must keep in mind that our work as third-party fact-checkers depends on how much trust our readers have in our ethics. This is why we must respect the highest standards of transparency, nonpartisanship and fairness we can. We propose to create a worldwide and open source database of fact-check which will include the work of all fact-checking units which will want to join this effort. Such a dataset will be a huge step in terms of transparency and will facilitate studies about hoaxes.

Henk van Ess Bellingcat. Finishes at 12:00*
Henk van Ess is fact checking fast and furious once more (you can follow this session without having followed Fast and Furious Fact Finding (1) with Facebook) but is now focusing on the clever use of Google, Wayback Machine, Skype and YouTube. Find the secret address of a CEO by typing in a very strange looking formula into Google (Novartis) Find out who is behind that mysterious note of a IS-warrior (Backdoors in Archive.org) Why should every reporter know about Google Triple Search (case of corrupt president)? What is the clever Google trick that also allows you 1) to find out when something went viral 2) who is behind a nickname and 3) even helps you to find deleted Instagram accounts? What do you do when you have to view 5 hours of YouTube videos, but you only have 15 minutes? (Jihadi John) How do you find the exact time that something was uploaded to YouTube? Why is a backdoor in Skype one of the best people finders? (San Bernardino shooting). Sit down, buckle up and get lots of verification tips,
