Inside the Information War: Journalism on Europe’s Frontline

Eastern Frontline
Dela

In today’s conflicts, some of the fiercest battles are not fought with weapons, but with information.

In this episode, MEP Reinis Pozņaks and MEP Petras Auštrevičius are joined by Sarah Wheaton, Chief Policy Correspondent at Politico Europe, to explore the role of journalism in times of crisis and the growing pressure on independent media.

Together, they discuss:

  • How disinformation and polarisation are reshaping public debate in Europe
  • The challenge of verifying truth in an era of AI, deepfakes and viral content
  • Why trust in traditional media is eroding, and what that means for democracy
  • How foreign influence operations fuel division 
  • Whether governments should regulate information in wartime
  • The uncomfortable reality that journalists themselves are now targets

It is a candid, timely conversation about power, perception and the line between information and manipulation.
