About this episode
Nancy Pelosi is a huge figure in US politics. She's Speaker of the House of Representatives - the first woman to hold the position - and as a Democrat, she's a frequent target for supporters of President Trump. Last week, a video of her which had been manipulated to make her sound drunk, was shared widely on social media. Does the video mark the start of a new era of fake news? Andrea Catherwood is joined by Craig Silverman, BuzzFeed News Media Editor, and Hazel Baker, Head of UGC Newsgathering at Reuters.
Also in the show, the changing world of travel journalism. Simon Calder of The Independent, blogger Chloe Gunning, and Michael Keating, joint CEO of Ink, a company that produces dozens of travel magazines, discuss how journalists help us decide where to go on holiday.
