Summary
Dr Larry Sanger is the ex-founder of Wikipedia.
Wikipedia is almost a public utility now, like water or energy. It's one of the most visited sites on the internet and provides millions with information every day.
But all might not be as pure as it seems and the utopia of the world's biggest encyclopaedia may have some fundamental flaws. Today we hear from one of the initial members of the project as he explains why Wikipedia is so messed up.
