Understanding News Bias: A Family Friendly Game

Partisan bias, insufficient coverage of local issues, and sexism: what makes news reporting biased?

Join our team of social data scientists in an interactive game to learn about how academics, journalists, and people from different backgrounds and different age groups think about these issues.

We are happy to present this event in a collaboration with the University of Swansea.
