Show your work: The new terms for trust in journalism
Not sure I agree with the general premise that what the vast majority of consumers of journalism want is proven transparency versus reinforcement of what they already agree with and tribalism.<p>The article seems to completely ignore many real world factors of human psychology present in people’s relationship to consuming news as well as the complex financial forces involved, or propagandist motivations of some state controlled media.<p>Also doesn’t account for news sources shifting dramatically to being mediated by social media gatekeepers rather than direct relations between publisher and consumer so it doesn’t account for pervasive filtering and how well researched and transparent journalism is pushed out for tribalist click bait anyway.<p>Nice utopian vision but too far removed from key real world factors to be practical I think.
