Our trust in news project is the only project in New Zealand that maps trust in news with internationally comparable data.
JMAD produced its first Trust in News in Aotearoa New Zealand report in 2020.
Since then we have conducted six surveys about trust in news and news brands
in New Zealand. The latest report was published on April 13, 2025.
We conduct our reports in collaboration with the Reuters Institute of Study of
Journalism (University of Oxford). Our research is internally funded and it has
ethical approval from the AUT Ethics committee.
​The annual report is co-authored by Dr Merja Myllylahti and Dr Greg Treadwell.
