Donald Trump has been a prominent voice attacking the integrity of news media, drawing from a deep-seated resentment and cynicism towards the press that has developed over time. Once, journalism's role in reporting and interpreting events was largely accepted, supported by a limited number of channels that fostered a consensus-based environment. The decline of this environment has led to a critical moment for journalism, as traditional outlets face financial challenges and alternative voices emerge to critique their work and motivations. This situation raises fundamental questions about the relevance of journalism as a means of knowledge production. Central to this inquiry is the definition of truthful accounts and the authority to create or determine them in a rapidly evolving media landscape. Through a detailed examination of Trump's interactions with the press, along with interviews with journalists and analyses of various media forms, the work explores the limitations of objectivity in journalism. It highlights how journalism often elevates certain voices while marginalizing others, leading to vital questions about its connection to audiences and its ability to create lasting value. Addressing diversity at the levels of production, reporting, and audience is essential for rebuilding trust in the media.
