Work outside a traditional newsroom but still deal with the lack of public trust in news? We hear you. That's why we created a new Freelance Trust Kit — a guide to help freelance journalists demonstrate credibility and earn trust. Check it out!

Research suggests people's distrust of news largely stems from a perception that news values profit over truth. Don't leave people with the wrong idea. Instead, get clear about your funding and ownership, and how it influences your coverage.

TOMORROW: The public assumes we’re chasing clicks/views/money. We're hosting a training tomorrow where we'll walk you through how to tell a more accurate story about your funding and ownership. Register here.

Don't let your community assume you prioritize shock value over careful coverage. Instead, get on the record about how you're working on behalf of your community. Take inspiration from how the Oviedo Community News team did this. ⬇️.

Misassumptions about how news is funded can be a key driver of mistrust. Don't let that be the case for you. In this training, we'll walk you through how to respond to those all-too-common complaints. Register here.
