[00:00:00]What is the biggest hurdle right now you think to solid corruption reportage?

[00:00:04]>> Yeah, I think um we have moved on from um the previous challenge in uh investigative reporting which is um access to uh data. The more bigger challenge for us is how do we uh make sure that this story uh gets through to the audience. more and more audience now tend to uh consume shorter uh content.

[00:00:31]It can be uh dangerous and can be misleading if you change those uh uh investigative stories into uh into uh smaller and shorter u bits or clips. Um so how do you then transfer this knowledge, transfer this insight to your audience without creating more noise? It can take maybe a few minutes for someone to come up with a disinformation piece of disinformation or fake news, but it could take months or even years for a reporter to produce an investigative report and you know just the that kind of uh mechanism or that kind of timeline is not compatible a lot of times with the kind of algorithms we have and people's attention. So a very real problem a very real challenge for investigative reporting.
