《政經關不了》主持人彭文正登上《紐約時報》
2020總統大選倒數4天，總統蔡英文的「論文門」引發國際關注。政經傳媒政論節目《政經關不了》率先揭發相關醜聞後，美國大報《紐約時報》日前來台採訪主持人彭文正，這此的訪問，除了針對蔡英文的學歷造假事件外，彭文正也回應有關假新聞與假訊息的相關議題，報導在美國當地時間6日刊出。
該篇報導稱，在本週投票前，對蔡英文的一連串攻擊，加劇了不信任和高度陰謀的氣氛。儘管蔡英文的母校倫敦經濟學院（LSE）已經證實了蔡的學位，但政界人士和媒體都質疑蔡英文的博士論文是否屬實。彭文正在每天都會開播的YouTube節目上，揭露了相關訊息。《紐約時報》稱，《政經關不了》目前擁有173,000名的訂閱者，且節目內容受到中國媒體的關注與報導，讓有關蔡英文論文的資訊也在中國流傳。
曾任電視主播的彭文正表示，他曾經支持蔡英文，並為他當選台灣女總統而感到自豪。針對《紐時》詢問是否擔心被塗抹為假新聞，彭文正回應，讓新聞與虛假新聞相互競爭，我相信大多數人並不愚蠢。最終，真相總會大白。

Awash in Disinformation Before Vote, Taiwan Points Finger at China

Politicians and media outlets have questioned whether Ms. Tsai’s doctoral dissertation is authentic, even though her alma mater, the London School of Economics, has confirmed that it is.
Dennis Peng hosts a daily YouTube show dedicated to proving otherwise. His channel has 173,000 subscribers. Theories about Ms. Tsai’s dissertation have circulated in China, too, with the help of the Chinese news media.
Mr. Peng, a former television anchor, once supported Ms. Tsai. He was proud that Taiwan elected a female president. Now he says he is not being paid by anyone, including China, to crusade against her.
He is not worried about being smeared as fake news.
“Let news and fake news compete against each other,” Mr. Peng said. “I trust that most people aren’t so stupid. Everybody eventually figures it out.”
