ALTQ Information Literacy with WDET's Jake Neher and Shiraz Ahmed

The next installment of our ongoing series addressing Information Literacy features WDET's Jake Neher and Shriaz Ahmed. Neher is a reporter/producer who works with 'Detroit Today,' and covers Michigan's political scene, while Ahmed is the radio station's Engagement Editor & Digital Content Editor. We covered the prevalence of confirmation bias, the S.I.F.T. method for spotting fake news, and the daily discipline reporters have to practice regarding the objective framing of a story.
