“The Biden administration has approved $5.7 million in grant funding to George Washington University to create a program that will provide psychological care to journalists who believe they are the targets of ‘misinformation-driven harassment campaigns.’
The program, called Expert Voices Together, is described in the government grant database as ‘a socio-technical system that provides real-time support to experts experiencing online harassment.’ The project’s goal is to provide journalists, and eventually other ‘experts,’ with means of ‘monitoring and reporting’ alleged abuse, as well as ‘personalized assistance with digital safety’ and access to ‘mental health care specialists’ as a form of ‘trauma-informed care.’”
