The article discusses the declining trust in legacy journalism and explores the reasons behind this crisis. Tara Henley, author of 'The Trust Spiral: Why the Media Needs Objectivity,' argues that years of work within the CBC have led to a situation where broad-mindedness in newsrooms has been eroded by an urban and elite class of group-thinking journalists. This issue is compounded by a revenue crisis that discourages risk-taking with nonconformist perspectives.

Henley emphasizes that the solution lies not in more one-sided internet outlets but in relearning traditional tools to maintain journalistic integrity. The piece highlights the need for media organizations to rebuild trust through objectivity and accountability, while also addressing systemic issues within the industry.
