Episode description

We return to the ongoing issue which is worrying many listeners: disinformation. Has the war in Ukraine made tackling it a more urgent priority? How does the BBC’s team differentiate between fact and fiction, and is social media in some way to blame? We ask the BBC’s disinformation editor, Rebecca Skippage, where priorities lie.

Plus, was the right terminology used in the documentary series Black Music in Europe? A listener in Kenya says not.

Presenter: Rajan Datar Producer: Howard Shannon
