News Over Noise: Trust Fall: The Long Slide of American Press Freedom

Trust in the media does not collapse overnight. It erodes over time. And that trust, or lack of it, matters.

In the latest episode of News Over Noise, Matt Jordan and Cory Barker talk with Tim Richardson about what is behind the long slide of American press freedom and what it means for democracy.

“Trust Fall: The Long Slide of American Press Freedom” examines how political pressure, economic instability, and changes in the information ecosystem are reshaping journalism in the United States.

The conversation explores the forces driving skepticism toward the press and what that means for accountability, truth, and public discourse.
