Serbian authorities have raided CRTA - Center for Research, Transparency and Accountability and factcheckers Istinomer citing baseless claims from Trump and Musk about corruption at USAID. We condemn this raid as an attack on free press and the precedent it sets for using baseless claims to launch attacks on independent journalism. https://lnkd.in/erKQW8bm

关于我们
The International Fact-Checking Network (IFCN) at the Poynter Institute was launched in 2015 to bring together the growing community of fact-checkers around the world and advocates of factual information in the global fight against misinformation. We enable fact-checkers through networking, capacity building and collaboration. IFCN promotes the excellence of fact-checking to more than 100 organizations worldwide through advocacy, training and global events. Our team monitors trends in the fact-checking field to offer resources to fact-checkers, contribute to public discourse and provide support for new projects and initiatives that advance accountability in journalism. We believe truth and transparency can help people be better informed and equipped to navigate harmful misinformation.

In Serbia, the Center for Research, Transparency and Accountability (CRTA), which operates the fact-checking platform Istinomer.rs, is facing targeted online harassment and threats following the suspension of USAID funding. As a member of the global fact-checking community, CRTA's right to conduct independent accountability journalism without intimidation must be protected. In times when independent journalism faces increasing challenges worldwide, supporting organizations like CRTA is crucial for maintaining democratic values and transparency. #PressFreedom #FactChecking #JournalismMatters #MediaFreedom #Serbia

Fact-checking is about accountability and facts, not censorship. Guided by the International Fact-Checking Network's Code of Principles, our mission remains steadfast: to provide accurate, transparent information to preserve information integrity— Here's our statement on Meta ending the fact-checking program!
Here's my statement as International Fact-Checking Network Director on Meta ending its US factchecking program: "This decision will hurt social media users who are looking for accurate, reliable information to make decisions about their everyday lives and interactions with friends and family. Fact-checking journalism has never censored or removed posts; it’s added information and context to controversial claims, and it’s debunked hoax content and conspiracy theories. The fact-checkers used by Meta follow a Code of Principles requiring nonpartisanship and transparency. It’s unfortunate that this decision comes in the wake of extreme political pressure from a new administration and its supporters. Factcheckers have not been biased in their work -- that attack line comes from those who feel they should be able to exaggerate and lie without rebuttal or contradiction."
