Episode 11 | The Cronkite Test: Separating News from Noise

from Policy, Decoded Hosted by The Homegrown Consulting Group

Remember when news was just a paper on your doorstep or Walter Cronkite’s steady voice? Not anymore. In 2025, we’re drowning in tweets, TikToks, and streaming feeds, with trust in media at a measly 31%. Join us as we unpack how we got here—from echo chambers splitting us into tribes to podcasts and blogs outpacing the old guard. Cable’s dying, local news is fading, and it’s on us to sift fact from spin. We’ll dive into the wild west of today’s media, spotlight tools like Sensity and TinEye to catch the fakes, and ask: Can we be our own Cronkite? Tune in for a deep dive into the chaos—and how to conquer it.
