Over the last decade, the BBC World Service has been at the forefront of a new wave of investigative journalism, challenging established seats of power and exposing crime and corruption. This dynamic, multi-presenter event charts the growing use of open-source intelligence (OSINT) and forensics within the news industry. This was a live show-and-tell presentation by the BBC's top investigative journalists.
This was part of BBC #WorldServicePresents, a three-day festival to celebrate the remarkable work of journalists, ahead of World Press Freedom Day on Friday 3rd of May.

The anatomy of killing was one of the most investigative stories ever done by BBC.

[@genepardy7884]

This content is important. Just too bad the sound is absolutely atrocious. You can do better BBC.

[@pynn1000]

Listening 2 days later, sound seems fine now. Perhaps they've done some fixing?

[@genepardy7884]

@@pynn1000 I hope so.

[@FreddieMatiba]

WoW!!!! 👏👏👏

[@briankagwanja5182]

BBC has the best investigative journalists in this world. I would like to congratulate Runako Celina and Aliaume Leroy for a job well done!

Terrible sound quality, spoils the whole thing

2013-9-7就說通訊網路有監控，就算弄到購物清單，購書清單，我們還是有辦法讓他們預測不準，鐵定是躲在後台資訊室

Immensely inspiring and kudos to all journalists in the world who work fervently for the truth.

This seems to be produced as a PR presentation for BBC with some of the presenters clearly showing discomfort at mouthing how great BBC is at the end of their presentation. Made me cringe at how old school it is. The subtle plea for “support” is not missed - please subscribe - is what I heard! Till date, corporate media has demonstrated intent to exploit OSINT folks - free labour, stealing credit etc etc. while you champion transparency and trust, let’s hear of your plans to pay and credit these incredible people who are doing your work.

[@msherman2888]

absolutley part of the changes that must happen, credit is not part of plagerism or intelectual theft, hope think tanks take this on as well, forensic investigations begin with the public and the people who are present. Who what where when why and how are foundtions to administrative theory, intelectual property, and moral policy(integrity). A new kind of crime is rapidly developing. Open source could become criminal as well unfortunately.

[@solarwind907]

Thank you for your amazing work! After watching the Hamas training videos, I had a disturbing thought. It seems to me that Israel. HAD TO HAVE. Known that Hamas was planning an attack and planning to take hostages. If that is the case, is there any evidence that points to Israel deciding to let Hamas go on a killing spree so that they could retaliate and bomb the Palestinian people into the Stone Age? I am NOT trying to start a conspiracy theory. I have ZERO evidence of this. I have always thought and heard that Israeli intelligence is some of if not the best intelligence in the world. this makes it difficult for me to believe Israeli intelligenc did not know it was coming. Thank you for your service. I am awed by those journalists. They sacrifice their lives for the sake of others. Respect.

But when you can tell the bias within 3 minutes of watching any "news" program, all trust is already lost. The open source that you've shown today seems to be the only trustworthy portal left. Now we have to wade through that with open eyes. It's a shame that trustworthy journalism was lost before AI...
