Today marks the start of Journalism Matters Week - a campaign highlighting the vital importance of trusted journalism in these uncertain times.
The Liverpool Echo has a long and proud tradition of campaigning journalism - fighting for our communities, holding authorities to account and telling the stories of Merseyside's remarkable people.
In an age of disinformation and fake news, it is more important than ever that the ECHO provides reliable, trustworthy journalism and continues to hold those in power to account.
