What do you think the media and journalists can do to restore some of the public trust that has been lost, especially as the political divides in this country have seemed to get deeper and deeper over the last decade?

I don’t think it’s a cop-out. I think people have entrenched themselves so much into political camps that they perceive any information contrary to their preconceived ideas as biased or just flat-out false. To an extent, I think he’s right that news consumers also have to do some introspection to figure out why they have such a deep-seated distrust of anyone with the title of “journalist” after their name (aside from one of their “trusted” sources telling them not to believe it).
