I guess you could call this a win for the Trump White House. From Fox News:

By a slim 45-42 percent margin, more voters say they trust the Trump administration to “tell the public the truth” than the reporters who cover the White House. Ten percent say neither…

There are the expected partisan differences. Eight in 10 Republicans (81 percent) trust the Trump administration more to tell the truth, while roughly the same portion of Democrats trust the media (79 percent).

Independents are twice as likely to put their faith in Trump as the press (52-26 percent), while 16 percent say neither.

Fox polls lean left. It looks like this poll leaned heavy on Moonbat Dems.

I’ve been waiting 35 years for people to catch up. Vindication is sweet.

And to all my fellow Naval officers who used to look at me like I was a maniac when I tried to point out media dishonesty, FU right to death.

‘2 to 1 independents going for Trump.’

That was my take, too.
Dems trust the lying Media,
Reps trust President Trump,..
and, the gamechanger,
Independents trust President Trump.
The whole Democrat scheme is backfiring on them.
Maybe they could all put on stupid hats and run around yelling the ‘f’ word.

Dems, low information voters who believe the media.
