SUMMARY:Greenwich SITP: That doesn't sound likely: A practical guide to mis
 information [Emma Monk]
DESCRIPTION:We live in an age of weaponised misinformation\, from misleadin
 g statistics to fabricated headlines. But how do you spot it\, and what do
  you do when you see a headline and think “that doesn’t sound likely
 ”? Drawing on her work as a molecular biologist and writer of the Monk D
 ebunks Substack\, Emma Monk will walk you through the tools and techniques
  she uses to unpick misleading claims across the media and politics. Using
  real-world examples and a healthy dose of scepticism\, expect to leave be
 tter equipped to question what you read and confident enough to push back.
 \n\nEmma Monk is a researcher\, writer\, and anti-misinformation campaigne
 r originally trained as a molecular geneticist. She applies scientific rig
 our to debunking misleading narratives across politics\, media\, and publi
 c discourse\, examining how data and headlines are routinely misrepresente
 d. Emma is the creator of the Monk Debunks: Beyond the Narrative Substack\
 , and has appeared on BBC Radio 4's More or Less\, and James O'Brien's LBC
  show\, and her debunks have been discussed on podcasts including Quiet Ri
 ot and The Trawl\, and quoted in The Guardian. Through her Substack\, talk
 s and workshops\, she equips people with practical tools to spot misinform
 ation\, evaluate sources\, and resist manipulation.
