ABOUT THIS EPISODE
In this episode of War Tribe, we meet Eliot Higgins, the founder of the citizen journalist collective Bellingcat.
He has changed the way conflict reporting is done in recent years.
Eliot works with more traditional war reporters to investigate what really happened in high profile cases where the truth is disputed.
He pioneered the verification of freely-available ‘open-source’ evidence drawn from social media.
In this conversation, Eliot talks about how he investigated who was responsible for shooting down the Malaysian Airlines plane MH17 over Ukraine in 2014, which Russia denied and blamed on Ukraine.
