Synopsis

In 1997, a group of America's leading journalists convened to examine the erosion of public trust in their profession. They observed how advertising, new technologies, and a shift towards entertainment over factual reporting were impacting newsrooms. This committee aimed to understand how journalism had reached a point where fact blurred with fiction and news with rumor, leading to a significant decline in readership and viewership.
