Abstract: The research investigates media trust in Ukraine from 2013 to 2025 by combining knowledge from psychology, sociology, political science, and philosophy. The study shows how media trust has transformed because of political developments, war, and technological progress by moving from «disinformation» to «сognitive influence» and artificial intelligence. The research presents its main findings and proposed future study directions, stressing that democratic strength depends on media trust while fighting cognitive manipulation and requiring new digital research approaches.
