Freedom of speech, fake news, media reality. The true media always speak the truth. Or do they?

TABULA RASA

Who Knows the Truth?
Communication and news are the fuel of events. But do they, to a greater extent, reflect the narrative of the prevailing ideology rather than actual reality? With a newspaper and a collection of posters Alvaro Alcaide illustrates the contrast between the politicians' statements and the consequences of their deeds forcing us to respond. This critical approach makes us realise when the free word is no longer free.
