The project explores ethnographically the relation between social trust and the Fake News phenomena in Bucharest, Romania. The research focuses on the way levels of trust are affected by social relations and by the consumption of media that have been identified as the main promoters of Fake News: (1) social media, especially WhatsApp, Facebook and TikTok platforms, (2) online media outlets, including blogs, vlogs, and news sites; and (3) niche television channels with rather alarmist viewpoints.
