Summary

TLDRO vídeo aborda a importancia da confianza en América, centrando a discusión en como a confianza nas institucións, especialmente nos medios de comunicación, está diminuíndo. Katerina Eva Matsa e Lee Rainie explican como o consumo de noticias evolucionou cara ás plataformas en liña, desprazando a televisión, mentres os modelos de negocio dos medios cambian cara aos ingresos dixitais. A confianza nos medios está tamén influenciada pola identidade política, a desinformación crescentemente problematica e a complexidade engadida polas redes sociais. Mentres que moitos americanos senten confianza en certas fontes de noticias específicas, esta confianza non se estende á industria mediática no seu conxunto. Unha conexión persoal con xornalistas e sentir que os medios representan ao espectador contribúe a valoracións máis positivas. O vídeo subliña a responsabilidade dos xornalistas en axudar ao público a atopar a verdade e navegar por esta nova era de información dividida.

    A confianza en América, tanto nas institucións como nos individuos, é crucial para o funcionamento da democracia dos Estados Unidos. Sen embargo, a confianza está a declinar, afectando a sociedade americana. Katerina Eva Matsa e Lee Rainie exploran como esta desconfianza impacta nos medios de comunicación e na avaliación que os americanos fan das fontes de novas. A xente confía menos en grandes institucións, incluídos os medios, que no pasado. Diversos cambios no sector dos medios, como o consumo dixital de novas e a diversificación de ingresos, engaden complexidade á situación. Ademais, a desinformación e a identidade política contribúen á desconfianza xeralizada. Un aspecto chave é a conexión persoal cos xornalistas, que pode influír positivamente na percepción dos medios. Finalmente, os americanos buscan fontes que aliñen coas súas visións persoais nun contexto onde a confianza mutua tamén está en declive. Buscan guía para atopar a verdade e esperan que os xornalistas ofrezan solucións para estes desafíos.

    - [Intro] Trust in America, in institutions, in each other
  • 00:00:05
    is essential to the functioning of U.S. democracy.
  • 00:00:08
    Yet today, trust is declining.
  • 00:00:10
    So what impact does this have on American society?
  • 00:00:13
    In this episode, Katerina Eva Matsa and Lee Rainie
  • 00:00:17
    help explain trust in the news media
  • 00:00:19
    and how Americans evaluate news sources.
  • 00:00:23
    - [Lee Rainie] Trust is declining.
  • 00:00:25
    Our work shows that people are less trustful
  • 00:00:28
    of major institutions, including the news media,
  • 00:00:30
    than they used to be.
  • 00:00:31
    And your team has documented
  • 00:00:34
    a lot of this broad change that's occurred.
  • 00:00:37
    - [Katerina Eva Matsa] The news media as an industry
  • 00:00:39
    has undertaken a lot of changes.
  • 00:00:42
    First, the way people get news today
  • 00:00:44
    has changed from 10 years ago, from 20 years ago.
  • 00:00:48
    We've seen that online news consumption is up,
  • 00:00:53
    and it's at this point even more than television.
  • 00:00:57
    Second is the news media industry's business model.
  • 00:01:01
    We've seen that many news organizations
  • 00:01:04
    are now changing their revenue streams,
  • 00:01:08
    focusing now more on digital ad revenue.
  • 00:01:11
    The third element has to do with political identity.
  • 00:01:16
    We see that the Republicans and Democrats
  • 00:01:19
    place their loyalty and their trust
  • 00:01:22
    in very different sources.
  • 00:01:24
    The fourth development is misinformation.
  • 00:01:29
    The challenges that Americans are facing,
  • 00:01:31
    parsing through the news online
  • 00:01:33
    is in this new environment of misinformation,
  • 00:01:37
    with a large share of Americans saying
  • 00:01:40
    that made-up news creates confusion
  • 00:01:43
    and it's really a big problem for society.
  • 00:01:48
    - [Lee Rainie] It's true that social media now
  • 00:01:50
    has added an extra layer of complexity
  • 00:01:53
    to the issues that news consumers
  • 00:01:55
    and news producers are grappling with.
  • 00:01:57
    And it almost gets back to the very foundational question.
  • 00:02:00
    We asked, "Do you trust the news media?"
  • 00:02:03
    And a lot of people answered "no" to that question,
  • 00:02:06
    But then, to unpack that idea,
  • 00:02:09
    and Americans are equally comfortable
  • 00:02:12
    sort of saying, "Yes, I really like,
  • 00:02:14
    and I really trust some sources but not others."
  • 00:02:18
    And so, in a way,
  • 00:02:19
    their trust has become disaggregated and divided.
  • 00:02:23
    - [Katerina Eva Matsa] One of the things that we've seen
  • 00:02:25
    is that idea of personal connection
  • 00:02:27
    with a journalist or a news organization.
  • 00:02:30
    We see that that matters.
  • 00:02:31
    When we ask people whether their media represent them,
  • 00:02:35
    whether the journalists that they talk to
  • 00:02:38
    are embedded in the community,
  • 00:02:39
    that's where we see big differences
  • 00:02:42
    in how people evaluate the media.
  • 00:02:45
    People that say that they've talked to a journalist
  • 00:02:47
    or they see themselves in stories,
  • 00:02:49
    they're gonna have more positive things evaluations
  • 00:02:52
    of the news media.
  • 00:02:53
    - [Lee Rainie] People have lots of news sources
  • 00:02:56
    that they trust, but they don't think
  • 00:02:57
    that the institution of the news media
  • 00:03:00
    and the industry of news organizations
  • 00:03:03
    as a whole is trustworthy.
  • 00:03:05
    So people tend to go to sources of information
  • 00:03:09
    that map with their point of view.
  • 00:03:12
    And we see in our data
  • 00:03:13
    Americans don't trust each other the way they used to.
  • 00:03:15
    They don't think Americans share the same facts
  • 00:03:17
    that they used to.
  • 00:03:18
    And so, the charge to people
  • 00:03:21
    who are in the thick of this new environment
  • 00:03:24
    is to figure out how to help people
  • 00:03:27
    find their way to the truth and not make it a hard job.
  • 00:03:30
    And Americans couldn't be clearer about that.
  • 00:03:32
    They want to know what's going on,
  • 00:03:34
    and they want help doing it,
  • 00:03:36
    and they are looking to journalists
  • 00:03:38
    to help solve these problems.
