Big thanks to everyone who watches, reads and listens for trusting me to reveal real-world impact of what’s happening on social media - algorithms, hate, disinformation - and top teams & presenters! So happy with response to it all - and trolls of course. www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/brand...

Really loved the social investigations around US and UK elections, Why Do You Hate Me podcast series, Panorama on teens and algorithms and more. Check out Marianna in Conspiracyland feed for all my investigative BBC Radio 4 pods with millions of listens. www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/brand...
