How BBC Verify is transparent in its fact checking

Over to You

Available for over a year

With the launch of a new unit, BBC Verify, the BBC is now sharing the fact-checking and investigative work its journalists and correspondents do behind the scenes with the audience. We ask the BBC’s director of news content what “transparency” actually means and why it is important? Plus, is the corporation getting repetitive with its use of interviewees? A listener tells us he has heard the same guest in three different programmes. Presenter: Rajan Datar Producer: Howard Shannon A Whistledown production for the BBC World Service
