Former WABC TV Anchor Ken Rosato on Why Mainstream Media Is Failing America

Veteran broadcast journalist Ken Rosato, a longtime New York City morning anchor, says legacy media has lost public trust by blurring the line between reporting and opinion, a shift he believes has fueled declining ratings and the rise of independent journalism. Rosato made the remarks during a recent interview with independent journalist Dave Bondy, whom Rosato has mentored since Bondy first entered broadcasting, providing career guidance and personal advice early in his career. Rosato said many newsrooms moved away from balanced coverage while presenting ideological viewpoints as neutral, a trend he said viewers increasingly reject as they seek more transparent and direct sources of information.
