[PODCAST]
We were joined by Frederico Links, a veteran journalist and IPPR researcher who’s tracked Namibia’s media landscape for over a decade.
The IPPR and Namibia Fact Check recently launched a report in Windhoek, exposing rampant disinformation during the 2024 Presidential and National Assembly Elections.
It slams unchecked media, political smear campaigns, and AI misuse, urging better fact-checking to protect the public. Links, a co-author, joined us to unpack the fallout and what’s next.
