Election ads are everywhere. On TV, social media, newspapers and in your letterboxes at home. So, does that mean all ads you’re seeing are true? Are they legally required to be true? Well, that’s what we’re going to answer in today’s podcast, unpacking how political communication occurs during an election, what politicians can say during this time, and whether or not they’re allowed to lie.

Hosts: Zara Seidler and Billi FitzSimons
Producer: Orla Maher
