Question for written answer E-004859/2020 to the Vice-President of the Commission / High Representative of the Union for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy Rule 138 Patrick Breyer (Verts/ALE)
Subject: One-sided fact-checking on EUvsDisinfo website
The International Fact-Checking Network’s code of principles provides that an applicant may ‘not unduly concentrate its fact-checking on any one side’.
1. Why does the EUvsDisinfo website concentrate only on ‘pro-Kremlin disinformation’ and not disinformation from any source?
2. Does the Commission consider the name ‘EUvsDisinfo’ to be appropriate for a website concentrating only on ‘pro-Kremlin disinformation’?
