- Double-weighted statement
- This long-form output represents an extended, complex piece of research drawing on a set of hard-to-access primary sources requiring great interpretative skill. The critical insight and complex argument presented were dependent on a sustained, deep and multi-layered investigation of a great variety of historical sources. These qualities, and the book’s synthesis of journalism, history, media and law scholarship in its investigation of the vital question of fake news, account for our decision to request double weighting.
