Reuters Editor-in-Chief absolutely shocked public trust in media at historic low

We nearly missed this classic blog post by Reuters Editor-in-Chief David Schlesinger last month:

My industry, media, had a Trust tumble in the US and UK to small levels of trust never seen before – “How much do you trust media to do what is right?” The US is down to 27% and the UK 22%. Maybe I should try my hand at fiction instead!

Reuters has been doing quite well in that category for years.
