"If you can't respect the basic fundamental underlying principles with which we order society — which is 'Do not steal' — then what are you left with?" asks investigative journalist Carole Cadwalladr.

What happens when big Silicon Valley companies take over communication platforms and weaponize intellectual property against you? She suggests that when you feel powerless, it's often actually because you are powerful — and explores why it's so important to fight information chaos by supporting independent media and journalists.

At the start of the pandemic, the UK government's suppression of data prompted Carole Cadwalladr and her colleagues at All the Citizens to found Independent SAGE, a group of scientists who shadow official government scientists. Now, as the UK hurtles towards a June 21 reopening that now looks unlikely to happen, the group's findings are more concerning than ever. On this week's Kicker, Cadwalladr, a feature writer for The Observer, and Kyle Pope, editor and publisher of CJR, discuss what US journalists can learn from the UK's Covid fight, and how misleading euphoric Covid-19 coverage in the US has become.

Facebook, Google, and Twitter are going to be used to facilitate disinformation and racism in the 2020 US presidential election, and Carole Cadwalladr says we need to tell that story better. At the recent “Disinfo 2020: Prepping the Press” conference, Kyle Pope, editor and publisher of CJR, and Cadwalladr, a feature writer for the Observer who helped expose the Facebook–Cambridge Analytica data scandal in 2018, discussed her work and the connection between the Brexit referendum and the election of Donald Trump.

Listeners more erudite than us — yes, grammarians, it could be “we” — are undoubtedly familiar with Carole Cadwalladr. Her work was the subject of the recent Netflix documentary “The Great Hack,” exploring the weaponization of social media.The Cadwalladr and Netflix work adds further fuel to an on-going debate: would society be better off regulating Facebook, Twitter and the like as proposed by certain now-vacationing Washingtonians, or is Adam Smith’s “invisible hand” the answer?Economists might argue the latter: that aggregate consumer self-interest, unhindered by governmental or capitalist influence, will always produce the best outcome. But, if that’s so, how do you explain the 300,000,000,000 burgers sold by McDonald’s?Join the team from Failure - the Podcast in a discussion with Nadeem Mazen, co-founder of fabrk.io, a social network that is powered by cryptocurrency and consumer choice, and decide for yourself.

En una charla imprescindible, la periodista Carole Cadwalladr investiga uno de los eventos más desconcertantes de los últimos tiempos: la extraordinaria votación de 2016 para abandonar la Unión Europea. Rastreando los resultados de un aluvión de anuncios engañosos de Facebook dirigidos a votantes vulnerables del Brexit -y vincular a los mismos actores y tácticas de la elección presidencial de Estados Unidos de 2016- Cadwalladr desafía a "los dioses de Silicon Valley" por estar de parte del lado equivocado de la historia y pregunta: ¿las elecciones libres y justas son cosa del pasado?

Em uma palestra imperdível, a jornalista Carole Cadwalladr mergulha em um dos acontecimentos mais desconcertantes dos últimos tempos: a votação de 2016 para a saída do Reino Unido da União Europeia. Do acompanhamento do resultado até uma enxurrada de anúncios enganosos no Facebook direcionados a eleitores vulneráveis do Brexit - e com a associação desses mesmos participantes e táticas à eleição presidencial dos EUA em 2016 - Cadwalladr acusa os "deuses do Vale do Silício" de estarem do lado errado da história e pergunta: "As eleições livres e justas são uma coisa do passado?"

We are thrilled to welcome Carole Cadwalladr to Gaslit Nation. Carole is an investigative journalist who breaks major stories on the Kremlin and Mercer-backed Brexit vote, revealing a cast of nefarious characters that were also behind the election of Donald Trump. Her brave reporting, which won her the Orwell Prize and makes her a target of hit pieces, has uncovered the growing vulnerability of elections in a time of kleptocracy. 

This week on Gaslit Nation we discuss the media: the systemic failures of an economically and morally bankrupt industry dominated by rich white men, and the bravery and creativity of journalists who struggle not only within this system, but with a much more severe threat –an international alliance of kleptocrats who murder journalists with impunity. We continue our conversation about the assassination of slain journalist Jamil Khashoggi and reflect on other unpunished recent killings like the attempted Skripal poisoning in the UK. Why does the West do nothing when autocrats murder writers and dissidents so brazenly? Why isn’t the West hitting autocrats where it hurts them most – in their bank accounts?

Dark data, dark money & Putin's Russia: how British democracy is under assault. An unmissable evening with Carole Cadwalladr and Luke Harding, two prize winning investigative journalists, whose recent work has dominated news headlines across the world. The evening was hosted by journalist and writer Oliver Bullough. In a series of articles for the Observer, Cadwalladr exposed the 'fake news ecosystem' of the right wing press. Through her investigations into Cambridge Analytica, she exposed the alleged malpractice of the Vote Leave campaign during the 2016 EU membership Referendum. She also drew links between Nigel Farage and the 2016 presidential campaign of Donald Trump and the Russian influences on that campaign. For this brilliant work, in June she was awarded the 2018 Orwell Prize. Cadwalladr is joined by Luke Harding, award winning Guardian journalist, whose recent book Collusion: Secret Meetings, Dirty Money and How Russia Helped Donald Trump Win was published to huge acclaim at the end of last year. Between 2007 and 2011 he was the Guardian's Moscow bureau chief: the Kremlin expelled him from the country in the first case of its kind since the cold war. He is the author of A Very Expensive Poison: the definitive story of the Murder of Litvinenko, as well as books on Edward Snowden and WikiLeaks. In his most recent book, Collusion, Harding reveals the inside story of Trump's decade long relationship with Russia and how Russia if reshaping the modern world order to its advantage.

The award-winning journalist Carole Cadwalladr tells the story behind the story. How millions of Facebook users' personal data were used to influence the American election and Brexit. Meet Carole Cadwalladr, whos unravelling of The Cambridge Analytica Files is one of this years biggest stories, in a rare appearance outside of the UK. Cambridge Analytica was a British-American political consulting firm that used data mining and data analysis to build profiles of US and British voters. Over 87 million Facebook users' personal data were used without permission in an attempt to influence, among other things, the American election and Brexit. In March 2018, Cadwalladr broke this story based on information from former employee turned whistleblower Christopher Wylie. Wylie claimed that Cambridge Analytica used data from Facebook in a way that violated Facebook's rules. Cadwalladr also revealed that Facebook was aware of this for two years. Cambridge Analytica shut down on May 1. The pod-cast ends with a panel discussion about ways elections can be influenced in the with Emelie Rosén, Lars Truedson and James Pamment.

Carole Cadwalladr and Yael Eisenstat are two of the most prominent Facebook critics worldwide. Cadwalladr is the journalist who broke open the Cambridge Analytica story for the Guardian and The Observer. Eisenstat, a former CIA officer, worked on election integrity inside Facebook for six months before quitting and speaking out against the company. The two Facebook critics join Big Technology Podcast to discuss some people's disenchantment with tech criticism, the role of Facebook's Oversight Board, and how the company might fix its product. Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/big-technology-podcast/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
