We have an exciting Autumn coming up, with community meetings for Bette members featuring Gareth Gore, Peter Pomerantsev, and many other vital voices in the battle for truth and reality.
Speaking of allies, Dietmar Pichler is joining us this Tuesday at Bette’s Happy Hour at 10 am Pacific, 1 pm Eastern for a discussion on the following topic:
Out of Context: How Russia and Its Allies Exploit Domestic Policy Issues for War Propaganda
“Anti-Ukrainian propaganda, especially that which focuses on undermining Western support for Ukraine, seeks to exploit and distort the truth about the situation in the country. In reality, Ukrainian civil society and critical journalism clearly demonstrate the stark contrast with Russia.”
—Dietmar Pichler
We will be joined by Monique Camarra, a geopolitical analyst based in Italy and a great friend of our community. Her EuroFile substack is vital reading.
For those new to Bette Dangerous, a hearty welcome! We began these Tuesday Happy Hours nearly three years ago as a weekly wellness session for global newsies. They have evolved into an hour where we hear from international experts at the forefront of the information war, and it’s my way to help us gain clarity and get out of despair and into action.
Each week, we get briefings from members all over the world.
My content at Bette Dangerous is free, but I support myself with your paid subscriptions. Expect the return of our periodic Speakeasy and Founder’s Day events in Fall.
I do hope you join us on Tuesday for our conversation with Dietmar Pichler, a disinformation analyst, resilience strategist, and Editor-in-Chief of Inved Insights published by the Institute for the Defense of European Democracies.
