Climate change, supply-chain snarls, the evolving pandemic: they all made headlines in 2021. And these themes will likely continue to dominate our attention in the coming year—at least according to 45-plus journalists and commentators from around the world that we recently polled.

Journalists, media executives, columnists, commentators, and media critics—from the US and around the world—offered McKinsey their perspectives on what will make the news, from climate change and misinformation to the growing role of artificial intelligence and global supply-chain challenges. And, critically, what is unlikely to merit the headlines we all ought to see more of in the coming months.

Quote of the Day
