Investigative journalist Mimi Yates explores how a story travels from a stranger's DM to an undercover investigation, a newspaper front page and millions of views on TikTok. The talk covers gaining trust, undercover work and verifying claims, drawing on real investigations into homelessness, harassment and county lines, and asks whether everyone can be a journalist today.
