We're joined by Marie-Jose Daoud for Episode 93 of The Beirut Banyan, and we discuss traditional reporting, alternative media, reliable sources and the role of women during the ongoing revolt.

Marie-Jose Daoud is a co-founder of Labneh & Facts, blending storytelling with reporting and focusing on the human and emotional side often lacking in traditional outlets. She reflects on the power of social media and emphasizes fact-checking while reporting and the importance of verifying fact from fiction.

Marie-Jose holds a Masters degree in journalism from the Columbia Journalism School.
