Uncommons with Nate Erskine-Smith

The pursuit of truth with Eliot Higgins

Jan 17, 2024

On our first episode back, Nate is joined by the founder of Bellingcat Eliot Higgins. Bellingcat is an investigative journalism website that specializes in fact-checking and open-source intelligence. Elliott himself began blogging about the Syrian civil war over 10 years ago. His work individually and as part of Bellingcat has ultimately created an incredible citizen-led community of journalists and fact-checkers. 

If nothing else, Elliott is intent on restoring our collective concern for the truth. And it's hard to think of something more important than that, especially as we all now increasingly live our lives in a world of such fast-moving information.
