Teens Lose Trust in News Media

Many teenagers in America don't trust the news.

They think it's biased, confusing, or even fake.

A study found that most teens have a negative view of the news media.

They believe journalists sometimes make things up or don't check their facts.

This mistrust comes from many places.

Some teens see their parents not trusting the news.

Others don't learn about journalism in school.

Plus, movies and TV shows often show journalists in a bad light.

Some people think the news industry needs to change to win back trust.

They suggest teaching teens how to find reliable news and making journalism more engaging for young people.
