The unseen truth about global trust in news
Trust is the currency which makes democracies and societies function, the social glue that binds people and structures together. Undermining trust in the governance system, in institutions, in media and between people is an early step in any authoritarian’s plan for destroying democracy.

A case of indifference
The parable of the rich man or Dives (Latin for “rich man”) and the beggar Lazarus is very wellknown. It is characterized by its simplicity and beautiful originality. In contrast to other stories, the characters are not distinguished by their moral state but simply by their social status. The parable does not speak of a “wicked” rich man or a “holy” poor man. Dives does nothing evil against anyone. He has either earned or inherited his enormous wealth. He simply lives like a rich man, a true bon vivant! Neither is Lazarus presented as a holy beggar. He does not beg but merely lies at the gate of the rich man. He seems to wait for death, and eventually he dies. But so does the rich man.
