About this listen

In Why Journalism – Real News in an Age of Lies, Erik Fichtelius explores the media's role in defending truth in an era of misinformation. With democracy under threat worldwide, this book reveals the challenges faced by journalists as they navigate political pressures, digital disruption, and AI's impact on newsrooms.

Drawing on five decades of experience, Fichtelius, one of Sweden's most respected journalists, delves into major global events, from Cold War smuggling operations to modern-day conflicts between the press and political powerhouses. He argues for impartial journalism that answers the crucial questions of who, what, where, when, why, and how – offering the facts needed to navigate today's world.

A must-read for aspiring journalists and defenders of press freedom, this edition includes three new chapters on the rise of AI, the digital revolution, and the vital role of public service broadcasting in safeguarding journalistic integrity.
