Clearly there is a problem with misinformation, so how do we encourage experimentation with solutions and improve the quality of the information shared? Don't forget that bias, accuracy, and transparency are crucial. bit.ly/TrustInMedia #SSIRLive @knightfdn @askenazid

An April 2018 survey experiment of U.S. adults sought to test the effectiveness of a news source rating system designed to bolster online news consumers’ ability to identify misinformation, or so-called “fake news.” The results: kf.org/tmdtrustcues #knightcomm @GallupNews
In January, Knight & @GallupNews released one of the largest surveys to date on Americans’ changing opinions of the Fourth Estate. We’re exploring questions that came from that research. Read the first two reports on misinformation & bias: kf.org/tmdseries #knightcomm
