How do you know what’s true in a world of endless information? For Gen Z, it’s not just a challenge, it’s their reality. Our new research from Channel 4 reveals that Gen Z is facing a truth crisis. From grappling with infinite information and personalised algorithms to navigating economic uncertainty and a global pandemic, the struggle is real. As misinformation spreads, it’s reshaping how Gen Z views institutions, people, and even truth itself.

Channel 4 is a publicly-owned and commercially-funded UK public service broadcaster.
About us
Channel 4 is a unique and distinctive part of the UK. Publicly owned but entirely commercial and self-sufficient, our public-service remit mandates us to take risks and offer alternative programming, commissioning all of our programmes externally. We’re home to the UK’s biggest free streaming service, and a network of 12 television channels. We have the youngest-skewing PSB channel in the UK – and we reach more 16-34-year-olds than any other commercial broadcaster across TV and streaming. Through Film4, we back creative excellence and invest in British filmmakers, to huge critical acclaim – Film4 films have produced 138 Oscar nominations and 35 wins in our 38-year history. We bring to life new creative ideas and, in the process, create thousands of jobs and support hundreds of independent production companies across the UK. Channel 4 is built on strong foundations. Since we were created in 1982, we have been at the centre of national conversations and have been instrumental in creating a truly world-beating production sector. Channel 4's new Future4 strategy builds upon our strong track record of digital innovation and will accelerate Channel 4’s pivot to digital by driving both online viewing and new revenues. It’s an ambitious and comprehensive plan to transform Channel 4 into a digital PSB that retains its distinctive brand and public service impact. Channel 4 will never request bank details from job applicants in connection with a job offer. Any official job offers will only be made through Channel Four Television Corporation directly, and not through any subsidiaries. Please remain cautious and report any suspicious communications claiming to represent Channel 4.
