Hi! This is an interesting point from Garry. Others reporting on problems in your communities? Do you feel your mission is to “defend and scold” the community?

01:19:40
Piggybacking on John Heaston’s question — is SMS an effective way to re-direct audience to social media if an algorithm changes?

01:20:32
What platform/tools are people using for SMS?

01:20:48
good Q.

01:21:06
WhatsApp business?

01:22:37
What kind of the technology use Punjabi for radio?

01:23:05
He said the buy radios in China

01:24:56
Another option is Telegram

01:25:17
To what extent does the content you produce during election/COVID times focus on training the community to spot disinformation (esp. on WhatsApp)? Research indicates that non-English speaking immigrants are the primary target of disinformation campaigns.

01:25:19
Is anyone using Telegram?

01:25:21
Do you have a separate phone from your personal cell phone for WhatsApp?

01:25:30
but I don't know how popular is

01:27:55

In Nebraska we have a big cases in the meat plants and we where focused to protect the population with information.

01:45:07
Sorry my computer is saying there is an error with the sound. The rumors we hear in Kentucky are like everywhere else, however the one we try to focus is on making people aware that COVID 19 is real, by trying to interview people that have gotten sick with it. Also we have tried to create events about informing the community like the Campaña # todosconcubreboca, we partner with the city and non profit organizations to give away hundreds on facemarks in latin stores.

01:45:34
Thnak you Ann

01:45:42
