Fake News
On this episode, Laura dives into two recent issues with journalistic standards and ethics. First, she discusses Charissa Thompson's statements (and then apology and then deletion of the apology) about faking reports as a sideline reporter at sporting events. Laura and Morgan discuss the implications as well as the holes and issues with her apology.
Next, Laura highlights the recent Futurism piece about Sports Illustrated having AI headshots and bios and articles that were allegedly written by AI. Laura and Morgan discuss the issues with what SI was doing and how bad some of the articles were.
Morgan ends the show with a rave (the whole episode has our rant covered).
