We're back in Part 2 with outtakes from this year's Florida Media Conference. This week, Dara chats with Politifact Editor-in-Chief Katie Sanders, and Michael Kelly, owner/publisher of The Herald-Advocate. Katie talks about the Truth-o-Meter and tells Dara how she and her team decide which claims to fact-check in their pursuit of keeping 'em honest online and IRL. Michael wowed Divas last year with the donkey story, and don't worry if you haven't heard it - we get an abbreviated version this time around! Michael discusses how the Herald Advocate serves members of the Peace River Valley and the challenges covering at-times hard-to-hear news in a small community. Loads more in this week's episode with two of our fave return guests, plus haiku!
