Trust in media information

For Miquel Rodrigo, cultural diversity places informative discourse in a crisis because it needs new categories to explain reality, and these categories are not always shared by journalists and by those who receive the information. Instead of gaining an easy trust drawnfrom stereotypes, he proposes, as a better way of overcoming the crisis, fostering the existence of sceptical readers. The media interprets social phenomena with its personal and professional limitations. The sceptical reader is one who knows why the media says what it says and understands that its truths are not absolute, since all ways of seeing are ways of concealing. The relationship between scepticism and trust is that which opposes a blind, acrylic and capitulating trust.
