Is modern journalism helping or hurting your ability to make informed decisions?

Legendary Canadian broadcaster Steve Paikin joins the conversation to explore the shifting role of journalism in an era defined by disinformation, industry complacency, and political volatility. From moderating federal debates to closing out The Agenda, Steve reflects on the integrity of his craft—and what happens when misinformation becomes the norm.

You’ll hear:

  1. How Steve defines the real difference between misinformation vs. disinformation—and why it matters
  2. The one mistake most media and financial professionals are still making about public trust
  3. Why “tough but fair” questioning is harder (and more essential) than ever in today’s journalism

🎙️ Tap into decades of wisdom from a media veteran who still believes in facts over flash. Listen now for insight that cuts through the noise.
