In this episode, Rebecca talks with Joy Mayer, founder of Trusting News, about why trust in journalism has declined and how newsrooms can actively rebuild it. Joy explains the origins of her project, the research behind what makes information feel credible, and the practical steps journalists can take to be more transparent, responsive, and trustworthy. They discuss the role of Trust Kits, the importance of listening to communities who feel overlooked, and how journalists can navigate issues like polarization, AI, and creator-driven news while maintaining integrity.
