Epworth Authors: Benhamu, Joanne Abstract: Stop the Australian anti-­‐Vaccination Network (SAVN) is a Facebook group that was established in 2009 with the express purpose of challenging misinformation perpetuated by the professional anti-­‐vaccination organisation the Australian Vaccination Network (AVN), now known as the Australian Vaccination-­‐Skeptics Network (AVSN). We present evidence that SAVN’s activities have been responsible for a reduction in the reach, influence, and financial power of the AVSN.

Epworth Authors: Benhamu, Joanne Abstract: False balance is defined as a media bias where journalists present opposing viewpoints as having equal weight, even when this is not supported by evidence. Considering the evidence for harm caused by false balance in vaccine stories, and the propensity for anti-vaccine activists to not adhere to the truth, SAVN recommends all public health advocates adopt the approach described herein. Given the frequency with which we receive such requests from journalism students, we recommend training in the dangers of false balance be introduced.
