Fake news in the Middle East with the BBC's Jamie Angus

Today we’re bringing you an interview with Jamie Angus, director of the BBC World Service Group. He spoke to The National’s Nick Webster in our Abu Dhabi studio about the BBC’s efforts to curb the proliferation of fake news.

Mr Angus tells us how the BBC is taking a proactive approach to curb the spread of fake news.
