Maria Ressa: Diktator yang Sebenarnya

Endgame with Gita Wirjawan

A study by the V-Dem Institute revealed that by 2023, 71% of the world's population was living under authoritarian regimes, marking a 48% increase in just a decade since 2013. According to senior journalist and 2021 Nobel Peace Prize laureate Maria Ressa, this trend is not a coincidence. She believes that leaders in information technology must be held accountable because the exploitation of lies, hatred, and shallow thinking on social media is at the core of today's democratic crises. Maria is the founder of Rappler, an independent news channel established in 2012 in the Philippines to champion press freedom as a cornerstone of democracy. Among her notable works are "How to Stand Up to a Dictator: The Fight for Our Future" (2022), "From Bin Laden to Facebook: 10 Days of Abduction, 10 Years of Terrorism" (2013), and "Seeds of Terror: An Eyewitness Account of Al-Qaeda's Newest Center" (2003). #Endgame #GitaWirjawan #MariaRessa ------------------ Get Maria's book from Periplus bookstore here: https://www.periplus.com/p/9780753559208 ------------------ Understand this episode better: https://sgpp.me/eps180notes ------------------ Earn a Master of Public Policy degree and be Indonesia's future narrator.
