An Interview with investigative reporter Jessikka Aro / Why Should We Care? / Conference 2024

03/10/24

Finnish investigative journalist Jessikka Aro made headlines around the globe when she exposed so-called troll farms in Russia a decade ago. However, that reporting also led to Aro herself becoming the target of vicious online abuse and intimidation. She discusses – among other questions – how troll farms function, whether their often young staff actually believe in the work they do and whether technological developments are making it even harder for the West to respond to such interference.

An interview was led by Ian Willoughby, a journalist with Radio Prague International, on the occasion of the international conference in honour of the laureate ot the Václav Havel Human Rights Prize 2024.
