In a world of "alternative facts" and "post-truth" politics, producing public-interest journalism is more important than ever—but also more complex. This book examines how journalism is evolving to meet the demands of the digital media ecosystem, where lies often spread faster than truth, and where modern news consumers increasingly expect journalism to be a conversation, not a lecture.

• Examines the historical roots of journalism's crisis while pushing the conversation toward promising experiments and solutions

• Offers insights from digital-era disruptors and innovators, as well as long-time veterans of the news business

• Provides context for the 2016 election's "fake news" phenomenon and explains—in clear and compelling prose—what savvy journalists are doing to rebuild trust in the real thing
