Tuesday Media Responsibility

Eric SmitEric Smit
Eric Smit (Nijmegen, 1967) is co-founder and chief editor of the platform for investigative journalism Follow the Money (FTM.nl). He studied economics at the Vrije Universiteit in Amsterdam and played professional squash until 1998. In 1999 he started his career as a journalist at business glossy Quote, where he became deputy chief editor. In 2006 he was a part of the team that founded the free newspaper De Pers. Follow the Money is a platform for investigative journalism in the Netherlands. Investigative journalism is a form of journalism in which reporters deeply investigate a topic, and a investigative journalist may spend months of years researching and preparing a report. With editorial budgets dwindling, new ways of financing this type of journalism are needed. Eric Smit will talk about media’s responsibility as a watch dog, and how this role can be carried out in the future.
