Pit Stop Reporter

(Reportáž psaná na benzínce)

Seeking the roots of disinformation in Czechia, journalist Ivana Svobodová is mocked and faces personal attacks at anti-government protests when she confronts people who share a hatred of traditional media and spreading disinformation.

Determined to track how unverified news, popular blogs and alternative media are thriving, Ivana travels from Respekt’s editorial office to meet the founder and author of the blog Vidlák’s Kydy. Trying to understand his views only leads to more insults. The story about the futility of mutual dialogue takes us among disgruntled citizens and, together with the reporter, we see what the price of professional journalism is in the age of misinformation.
