SUMMARY:Factions\, Fears\, and Fake News at Trinity College Dublin
DESCRIPTION:In a world where truth is under siege\, freedom of speech has
  never been more important. But\, as outrage and offense in p
 ublic debate become a commodity for social media technology 
 giants\, the future of professional journalism in educating p
 ublic opinion while challenging authority and power is incre
 asingly under attack. For media outlets\, defamation cases an
 d crippling costs are on the rise. By contrast\, commentary o
 nline and in social media from non-experts is flourishing wi
 thout the corresponding checks and balances. How do we deal 
 with the 19th century defamation legacy as well as facing th
 e challenges of public debate in the 21st?  How do we balan
 ce freedom of expression with the need for responsibility an
 d accountability?
