Katie Carroll (https://www.linkedin.com/in/kredcarroll/) heads up LinkedIn News (https://www.linkedin.com/showcase/linkedin-news/) for North America and the UK. In a world where social media is rife with misinformation and trashy stories that waste your time, LinkedIn curates and packages news to help the platform's professional audience get the information they need to help them do their jobs better. Matt Navarra and Martin SFP Bryant spoke to Katie about LinkedIn's approach to news, the challenges it faces, and how users can get more out of the platform.

S (https://twitter.com/carolecadwalla)tan Chudnovsky heads up Messenger at Facebook. As Messenger turns 10 years old, we ask him about its future as it transitions into being more of a layer across all of Facebook's properties, rather than just a standalone app. How does Instagram messaging and WhatsApp fit into this world? What about the metaverse? And can everything you do on Messenger be encrypted without unleashing other problems?

17. The Real Facebook Oversight Board on fighting social media's dark side
Carole Cadwalladr (https://twitter.com/carolecadwalla) and Professor David Carroll (https://twitter.com/profcarroll) are both well known voices against what they see as Facebook’s wrongdoing. They were two founding members of a group called The Real Facebook Oversight Board (https://the-citizens.com/real-facebook-oversight/), launched just three weeks before Facebook’s official Oversight Board (https://oversightboard.com/) started work last year.
Since then they’ve used the media to get their message out about everything from Facebook’s handling of the US election to the problem of vaccine misinformation on the company’s platforms.
Outside the Real Facebook Oversight Board, Carole is a well-known journalist who broke the Cambridge Analytica scandal, and David Carroll was seen in the Netflix documentary The Great Hack trying to get his data back from Cambridge Analytica.
