Perception and the truth—————————————————————————-The parable of the Blind Men and an Elephant: A group of blind men heard that a strange animal, called an elephant, had been brought to the town, but none of them were aware of its shape and form.

More recently, the #MeToo movement has raised questions about journalism’s ability to report on women fairly, and although deeply concerning to many for some time, the Black Lives Matter protests –…

How do people view media they come across in everyday life, and what can that tell us about why they do (and do not) trust the news they encounter? In early 2021, the Reuters Institute held a series of focus group discussions and interviews with cross-sections of people on four continents to learn more about the way people think about these matters. They told us about what they liked, what they disliked, and, most importantly, what they found trustworthy and untrustworthy about news, and why.This report summarises several of the insights we took away from these conversations.
