Angelo Paura

I am the U.S. correspondent for Il Messaggero, one of Italy's leading daily newspapers, covering politics, finance, the economy, and the intersection of technology, AI and power. I am based in New York.

Previously, I was Editorial Director at Blasting News, where I led a multinational newsroom, developed fact-checking initiatives, and managed two EU-funded projects on misinformation: Fake News Sicily and Eunomia. Before that, I worked as an analyst and editor at NewsGuard, evaluating the credibility of news outlets across multiple countries. I also collaborated with the NYU Media Lab to develop a newsletter on AI and local news.

My reporting and analysis have appeared in Politico Europe, BBC World Service, ProPublica, MediaShift, Motherboard, BuzzFeed, the International Center for Journalists, the Tow-Knight Center, Il Sole 24 Ore, Il Corriere della Sera and Mediaset-Tgcom24, among others.

I hold a Master's in Engagement Journalism from the Craig Newmark Graduate School of Journalism at CUNY. I am a U.S. and Italian citizen.
