RMIT has signed an MOU with SBS who, along with public, commercial and community media across Australia, join the online CrossCheck hub. CrossCheck pre-emptively identifies false claims, provides prebunks, give daily alerts and reports to its media hub so journalists can better inform their audiences.
A key initiative is the creation of a tipline for the public to report information they have doubts about. Members of the public to alert CrossCheck to any suspect information they see in social media feeds, are sent in chat apps or receive in letter boxes.
