We’re back from ESC Liverpool and have a lot to catch up on! We report about the winners of the Ockham Award and the Rusty Razor and debunk some disinformation about the unrest in France. Instead of a TWISH we have a short interview with Lizzi Collinge, a skeptic and a UK MP(!). Then, we tackle the news:
UKRAINE / RUSSIA: Did Ukraine’s strikes lead to a decline in Russian disinformation?
EUROPE: European governments withdraw support for disinformation conference following US pressure
FRANCE: A landmark legal victory for medical science and skepticism
UKRAINE: Ukraine still uses polygraph machines
DENMARK: Can you tell a real photograph from an AI-generated image? New research suggests you probably can’t.
GERMANY: When conspiracy theories turn dangerous
The Really Wrong Award for this week goes to all religious schools that cannot stop indoctrinating their students. We also have a fun Word of the Week: ‘Escroc’.
