If you are asking about dishonest or untrustworthy, the media.

However, for which is worse, I will have to say the government.

The reason is quite simple: I can opt out (and have) from reading CNN/NBC etc, so whatever they are up to do not affect me directly. I can not opt out of whatever the government is up to. Either group can claim that I’m a likely terrorist for no reason other than I’m a white conservative, but only one can strip-search me at an airport. Either one can call me a greedy rich person, but only one can force me to change my health plan. Either one can spread economic lies, but only one can actually crash the economy.

You personally can "opt out" of the media's constant bombardment of lies and disinformation, specially where this Government is concerned - but do your friends and neighbors? Do those around you consume and believe the media's lies and disinformation? Don't your friends, family and acquaintances and others read/listen/watch the media and consume news and vote?

Do you really think their votes don't impact you directly? I bet they do by the following three words: Barack Hussein Obama.
