Reuters, Facebook Journalism Project Create E-Learning Course on Deepfakes

The multimedia publisher and the social network take aim at manipulated media

Multimedia news publisher Reuters teamed up with the Facebook Journalism Project on an e-learning course aimed at helping newsrooms more easily detect deepfakes and manipulated media.

Identifying and Tackling Manipulated Media contains tips on identifying and rejecting manipulated video, images and audio to help curb the spread of misinformation.

The course uses real-world examples, hypothetical cases and insights into the evolving technology that is used to create and detect manipulated media.

It debuted in Arabic, English, French and Spanish, and Reuters said more languages will be added in 2020.
