At the Breakfast Dialogues held on 25 January at the NUS Society Suntec City Guild House, alumni and guests were treated to an insightful and engaging session with the Deputy Managing Director and Managing Editor of popular news and lifestyle website mothership.sg, Mr Martino Tan (Public Policy ’09).
Mr Tan candidly shared with the audience how mothership.sg was started by “three guys with no practical journalistic experience” and its journey to becoming the third most-popular local online news platform in Singapore. In this era of fake news, Mr Tan emphasised that it is important to be open and pragmatic, foster unity while respecting diversity, and let readers arrive at their own conclusions. The session was moderated by former NUSSU President Mr Soh Yi Da (Arts and Social Sciences ’14).
Mr Martino Tan highlighted the importance of openness and the need to respect diversity in opinion in this era of fake news.
