ProPublica announced Monday that it has hired reporter Craig Silverman to cover voting, platforms, disinformation and online manipulation. He starts on May 10.
Silverman comes to ProPublica from BuzzFeed News, where he held the title of media editor and produced a string of major investigative stories about misinformation, fake news and the unfettered power of social media networks. This year, he and Ryan Mac won the George Polk Award for business reporting for stories showing how Facebook was slow to remove extremist content, in addition to firing a whistleblower who determined that the company favored right-wing publishers while disregarding another who detailed how fake accounts were undermining the democratic process in India, Ukraine, Spain, Brazil, Bolivia, Ecuador and the U.S.
