Citizens are widely divided on the trust\, ethics\, a nd biases of big media\, particularly as new technologies advance and eco nomic structures change. How do consumers assess what information is true or not true\, and what is valuable? What will it take to maintain and/or regain public trust in the media? What roles will public and private med ia\, and the government\, play in sociological\, ecological\, and informa tional platforms\, and how does it intersect with the First Amendment? Ca n stricter filters be balanced with censorship? What responsibilities\, i f any\, do news\, arts\, entertainment\, and educational institutions pla y in ensuring ethical communications and leadership to society?
