This podcast, part of the Voice of the New South series,  examines information chaos as a reflection of deeper crises of governance and institutional credibility, rather than a purely digital problem. It highlights how social media amplifies existing weaknesses while reshaping power over public discourse. The discussion stresses that rebuilding trust depends on effective institutions, transparent leadership, and meaningful dialogue, not communication alone.
