On this edition of Straight Talk Africa, host Haydé Adams and her guests discuss the state of press freedom in the world with a focus on the African continent on this Word Press Freedom Day. We’ll discuss how political crises affect free expression and how new technologies and innovations such as artificial intelligence (AI) can blur the line between what is real and what is manufactured reality. Guests include VOA Africa reporter Ignatius Annor, Jessica Jerreat, VOA Press Freedom editor and Sadibou Marong, director of Reporters Without Borders' West Africa bureau.
