Science Chat – Episode 15: Libel in Science Journalism

by webmaster on August 10, 2010

In Science Chat Episode 15, I chat with Brian Trench about libel and science journalism. Brian is a well know science communication practitioner, academic and researcher who has until recently chaired the Masters degree in Science Communication in Dublin City University. Brian has also worked in journalism and has been a contributor on programmes on RTE radio and other broadcasters.
I first met Brian when I did the Masters degree myself, and he can always be counted on to be a willing participant in any kind of discussion about any aspect of science communication, and we chatted briefly about libel in science journalism following the talk given by Simon Singh in the Science Gallery, and this episode that you’re going to hear is the result of that initial chat.
The podcast can be found in the usual place… http://www.sciencechat.podomatic.com/ as well as on iTunes.
As usual I’d be glad to receive any comments you might have about this podcast or about libel in science journalism itself.
