Question

How are fact-checking and knowledge-based journalism different?

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Fact-checking and Knowledge-based journalism are different because when you fact-check, you are sure everything is right and ward off any potentially false info. When using knowledge-based journalism, you most likely know what you're writing is right, but it could potentially be wrong as your mind tends to twist things a bit.

Answer 2

Linda Greenhouse, winner of a Pulitzer said that journalists have to do their best to provide not just the facts, but also — always — the truth.

Journalists should be as transparent as possible about sources and methods so audiences can make their own assessment of the information.

We are in a world of "expanding truth", where everyone who is knowledable about something, and has a bit of exposure, talks in the news about a trending topic. Facts should be checked. ALWAYS. That's what distingues knowledge-based from fact-checking. In one, the person speaks just because he/she has a knowledge about something, but most of the times, facts are not really checked.
