The poll found that only 41 percent of Americans have either a "great deal" of trust (13 percent) or a "fair amount" of trust (28 percent) in newspapers, television and radio to report the news "fully, accurately and fairly."
It couldn't have anything to do with their 92% negative coverage of President Trump.
And all of the people, some of the time, BUT, you can't fool all of the people, all of the time.
We all got fooled by GWB and mittens, but we looked at the alternatives and gagged.
Sometimes we ate shit by the bushel, so we could find a mushroom.
We puked but the alternative was so repulsive that we did self flagellation, took the bit in our teeth, and charged ahead.
LOL! Sort of like “the US is a democracy” that is CONSTANTLY slammed in to our feeble little brains trying to make it true.
The partisan split is remarkable. It says a lot about media bias. Of course the media would dismiss it as Republicans being either stupid or crazy.
Hi.
I have one piece of data for their poll.
I distrust the media. Distrust. All of the corporate main stream media.
The reasons and facts are voluminous.
5.56mm
Who are these 13%?
Kooks. Or twenty-somethings. Or Democrat die-hards.
Even the Dummies don’t trust the media.
They think it’s a right wing, Trump supporting echo chamber.
No kidding......
Continues to puzzle analysts, although they don't hesitate to blame Trump's Twitter feed for inciting conspiracy theories.
Mass media?? It should be Messy Media...Yellow Journalism is back... or should it be Communist Red Journalism?
It’s amazing to me that the current media — which is supposed to be a money-making business for its investors — can continue to turn away well over 50% of its available audience.
It really seems to me that there is a huge hole in the market to be filled by someone with deep pockets. I’m not talking about a right-leaning network, but one that is fair and even-handed.
There’s a huge opportunity out there waiting to be filled.
