Guardian's 'Points of View' Campaign: 40 Years of Fighting Misinformation
Guardian's 'Points of View' Campaign: 40 Years On

In a world full of misinformation, the Guardian's commitment to reporting the whole picture has never been stronger. The newspaper has revisited its iconic 1986 advert, 'Points of view', which demonstrated how the story changes when you don't have access to the complete picture.

Then and Now

Since that original campaign, much has changed. The media landscape now includes AI-generated 'news articles', algorithmic feeds rife with misinformation, and billionaires controlling the news agenda. Through all of that, one thing has stayed the same: the Guardian's unwavering mission to provide journalism that is independent, global and open to all.

The Importance of Full Facts

With the support of its readers, the Guardian continues to give you all the facts, so you can fully understand what is going on. The newspaper remains dedicated to its core principles, ensuring that its journalism remains a trusted source in an era of widespread disinformation.
