"Because mistrust is broad-based, press-centric solutions to mistrust
are likely to fail. This is a broad civic problem, not a problem of fake
news, of fact checking or of listening more to our readers. The shape of
civics is changing, and while many citizens have lost confidence in
existing institutions, others are finding new ways to participate. The
path forward for news media is to help readers be effective civic
actors. If news organizations can help make citizens feel powerful, like
they can make effective civic change, they’ll develop a strength and
loyalty they’ve not felt in years."
On the mistrust of institutions.
