An Ethics in Media study reveals that a whopping 95 percent of Americans are troubled by the current state of media.
You couldnt get 95 percent of the American people to agree that ice cream and sex are awesome, but 95 percent can come together to recognize just how horrible the media are.
Whats wrong with the other five percent.
The study was conducted by the public relations firm Bospar and surveyed 1,010 American adults.
Specific reasons for why Americans are concerned do vary. But to no ones surprise, after more than five years of this
Trayvon Martin Murdered by Racist White Man
Michael Brown Yelled Hands up, Dont Shoot! Before Racist Cop Murdered Him
Brett Kavanaugh: Serial Rapist
Trump Ordered His Attorney to Lie
The Racist White Boys from Covington High School
Trump Cant Defeat Hillary
Trump Is a Russian Manchurian Candidate
fake news tops this list of concerns with a 53 percent majority.
Also hitting a near-majority are reporting gossip (49 percent) and lying spokespeople (48 percent). Here are the runners-up:
Celebrity opinions 36%
Left-wing agendas 34%
Gotcha journalism 33%
Right-wing agendas 32%
Puff pieces in exchange for access to other important interviews 31%
Blind items being reported in the news 30% Hit pieces 21%
Rise of independent contributors versus on-staff media 14%
More than two-thirds of respondents see no hope for the media, at least in the immediate future. A whopping 67 percent believe ethics in journalism will be worse during the 2020 presidential campaign.
People also understand exactly how all this bad journalism damages the country. Almost two-thirds, 64 percent, say it exacerbates division and partisanship; 63 percent said it fuels inaccuracies; 60 percent said it incites hate; 57 percent said it incites fear.

I hope that this is not a case of 55% of those people feeling that the media isn't being hard enough on President Trump ...
Of course you mean John Nolte.
I was wondering when Nick Nolte became a writer for Breitbart. 8>)
Uh...NICK NOLTE?
Don’t forget Jussie Smollett. How many Academy Awards will he win?
The corrupt media lies 110% of the time.
I found the 5%—they are nursing home residents!
Nick could be a media specialist these days.
Does this mean 5% of the population are 'journalists' or related to 'journalists'?
A Santa Claus natural.
So who’s the babe in the background?
LOL, yep but only on TV. 8>)
And yet the media won’t stop. It’s too late at this point anyway. I’m guessing that if your entire worldview is “us against them” where them is the viewers, then it really doesn’t matter. And it certainly echoes the same “us against them” attitude the politicians have.
He stole the show in “Angel Has Fallen” in which he apparently played himself.
{Whats wrong with the other five percent}
That 5% is the media.
THE GREAT AWAKENING!!!!!!!
Thank you, Lord!
Brain dead on life support.
