In this episode of Around the Bloc, we’re joined by journalist and editor Marcela Kunova to discuss the growing crisis of trust in media.

We talk about:

• Why public trust in journalism is collapsing
• Media ownership and political influence
• How algorithms fragment reality
• The dangers of activism and propaganda
• Low journalist pay and industry pressure
• How to rebuild pride and credibility in reporting
• Whether journalism can survive financially

From Slovakia to the UK, Marcela explains how democracy, media freedom, and business models shape what we read — and what we believe.

🎙️ A deep dive into journalism, media ethics, and the future of news.
