" summary

Panelists catalog real false headlines — pope endorses Trump, California legalizes child prostitution, Mike Pence insults Michelle Obama — and trace how social platforms amplify them, note Facebook's move to set up independent oversight, argue against a legislative fix for free speech risks, cite a rise in World News Tonight viewership to its highest in 13 years as proof people still seek trusted outlets, and push concrete fixes: newsroom transparency, eyewitness sourcing, and teach news literacy to rebuild trust.
