A typical response held that journalism isn't the sort of profession whose output can be graded like a taco stand or an Airbnb.\n\n But whether journalists like it or not\, some sort of system of ratings an d credentials is going to be built\; indeed\, it is already happening. Man y news outlets are banking on trust being the driver of loyalty and engage ment-both the Toronto Star and the Globe and Mail have invested in the Tru st Project\, designed to do exactly that.\n\nCan journalists be usefully a nd objectively rated? Should they require professional accreditation? How effective\, if at all\, are any of the numerous “trust projects” that are currently underway?\n\nModerator:\n\nAndrew Potter\, BA'93\, Associate Pro fessor at the ɬ﷬ Institute for the Study of Canada and former journali st\n\nPanelists:\n\nTony Keller\, Editorial Page Editor of The Globe and M ail\n\nDavid Skok\, CEO & Editor-in-Chief at The Logic\n\nJen Gerson\, Jou rnalist\n\nRegister for the event here\n\n\nAbout the moderator\n\nAndrew Potter\n\nAndrew Potter is a Canadian author and associate professor at th e ɬ﷬ Institute for the Study of Canada.
