We've got your golden ticket to GlobalFact 10. Plus, sessions for journalists of color and investigative reporters Email not displaying correctly? View it in your browser. You've got to know when to fold 'em Yoel Roth, former Global Head of Trust & Safety of Twitter, testifies during a House Committee on Oversight and Accountability hearing on Capitol Hill in February. (AP Photo/Carolyn Kaster) These days, it’s the job that Yoel Roth doesn’t have that he’s talking about. Previously the head of trust and safety at Twitter, Roth led a large team that was responsible for Twitter’s content moderation, integrity and platform security efforts, and combating harmful misinformation. That was before Elon Musk took over. In a recent episode of “This American Life” —  What I Was Thinking As We Were Sinking — Roth spoke about what it was like to be personally named by then-President Donald Trump during an Oval Office press conference as a threat to free speech. Roth will bring his fascinating story and his advice for journalists who still use Twitter to the stage at GlobalFact 10 as one of our keynote speakers. You can attend his session (or watch a replay), along with getting access to all the other GF10 goodies, with a free virtual ticket using code WTD100 at checkout. Other keynotes include Dr. Eun-Ju Lee of Seoul National University, who will share her understanding of the cognitive biases that cause people to fall for mis- and disinformation, her research on when people are more susceptible to false information, and how to enhance the effectiveness of corrective information; and Finnish investigative journalist and author Jessikka Aro, who has spent years investigating the activities of pro-Russian internet trolls.
