Fact checking is especially critical for freelancers as our credibility depends on filing accurate stories – even if magazines have fact-checkers\, do you really want to send in a story with misnamed drugs or misspelled sources? Or\, if you find your patient interviews from online discussion groups\, you’ll need to make certain they actually have the disease you’re writing about. \nThis 30-minute webcast led by author and freelancer Brooke Borel\, author of the recently-published\, “The Chicago Guide to Fact-Checking” will provide step-by-step tips on how to check your story for errors\, how to annotate your stories for a checker\, materials you need and when to start annotating. Independent journalist and AHCJ board member Jeanne Erdmann will moderate the discussion. \nHow to participate in the webcast\nClick here and a new window will open. Choose the option to “Enter as a Guest” and type in your name.
