War correspondent Jane Ferguson on how tech is evolving conflict reporting
On this week's episode we hear from Jane Ferguson, an award-winning journalist with a huge amount of experience covering wars and conflicts the world over. She tells us about how wars often bring the issues around modern journalism \u2013 mistrust, disinformation, lack of resources \u2013 into the starkest focus, and how the democratisation of tech is making the job of journalists covering war both easier and more difficult. \nIn the news roundup the team discusses the news that French authorities have levied a fine on Google for its unauthorised training of AI tools upon publisher content, and ask to what extent this is justified and its relationship to the ongoing acrimony between Google and publishers. Esther makes several excellent segues.\nSign up to our newsletter and community forum by going to voices.media.
