DEADLINE: TruthBuzz: The Viral Fact-Checking Contest

TruthBuzz: The Viral Fact-Checking Contest is a challenge that aims to invent new ways to help verified facts reach the widest possible audience organized by the International Center for Journalists (ICFJ), with the support of the Craig Newmark Foundation. Journalists and others are invited to submit creative solutions that turn fact-checking into engaging, visual and interactive stories. The deadline is June 30.

The contest is accepting entries in any digital format and in all languages. Ideas can take the form of a digital-media creation such as a video, cartoon, graphic, animated GIF, photo, quiz, audio file, game and more.

Cash prizes of US$10,000, US$5,000 and US$2,500 for the top three winning entries.
