Thank you, Mr. Chair.
My question is for you, Mr. Greenspon. Even before the COVID-19 pandemic, traditional news media had experienced declining revenues, with many publications being seriously downsized or closing altogether. This has clearly affected the ability to carry out the informed journalism that is essential to the functioning of our democracy. I'm sure you will agree with that.
COVID-19 has accelerated the negative impact on the news media at a time when we need objective, fact-based journalism to keep citizens well informed. At the same time, some people use social media to spread disinformation. What actions or roles should the federal government take to address the spread of this disinformation around COVID-19 and other serious policy issues?
