Teens Don't Trust The News–And Think Spider-Man Is A Journalist
Update: 2025-12-02
Description
Michael sits down with Peter Adams at the News Literacy Project to unpack a startling new study on how 13–18-year-olds view journalism—revealing deep distrust, confusion about media ethics, and a surprising cultural touchstone: Spider-Man. Michael also dives into how movies and TV shape our understanding of the press, from “Spotlight” and “Absence of Malice” to “Anchorman” and “The Morning Show.” A wide-ranging conversation about the future of news, the state of media literacy, and why local journalism still matters. Original air date 2 December 2025. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company. See https://pcm.adswizz.com
