Americans' trust in both their government and in each other is declining. That's according to the Pew Research Center, who have been collecting this data for decades.
Researchers Bradley Jones and Katerina Eva Matsa discuss how and why Americans are losing trust in two critical institutions: elections and news media.
Then, Eric Liu, the co-founder and CEO of Citizen University, and Tony Marcano, managing editor of member station KPCC and the LAist, share the steps they are taking to help citizens engage in civic life and re-establish trust in our country's election systems and news media.
In participating regions, you'll also hear a local news segment to help you make sense of what's going on in your community.
