Mis/Disinformation and
Election 2020: Verification and
Monitoring Tools for Journalists
Host: Dean Michelle Ferrier, Ph.D.
& First Draft
#FAMUArmorUp
Why We Are Here
Election 2020 and increased use of digital warfare
to create confusion and drive attention.
Journalists and media organizations are a key target of the
U.S. President and his tweets.
Misinformation campaigns create chilling effect on reporting
around issues such as voting, immigration, government
corruption and others.
What is “Fake News”?
Stanley Danzey, Intern,
CNN Sports
Alumnus,
School of Journalism & Graphic Communication
“I think one of the most important
things I have learned as a
journalist while working at CNN is
the necessity to get it right, not to
get it first.
Accuracy is king and the process
to verify the news that comes out
in today’s culture is the most vital
tool we possess.
Its our job and responsibility to
inform accurately, not disseminate
recklessly. Without verification,
without confirmed sources with
accurate knowledge and
information – there is no such
thing as news.”

1. Check URL, contact information
2. Check bylines. Anonymous bylines are suspect.
3. Is the headline written to be inflammatory?
4. Sources: Who are the sources used as evidence? Are
they anonymous? What is the provenance of the
”evidence.”
5. Does the “reporter” follow the Society of Professional
Journalists Code of Ethics?
6. Does the article paint the subject in a false light? Has
the reporter/media outlet published with ”actual
malice?”
What is ”Fake News”?
