Americans' confidence in newspapers and television news has fallen to all-time low points, according to the latest Gallup survey of institutions. Americans have the least confidence in Congress of all institutions named in the survey, but the news media institution comes in second from the bottom.

You give me hope for the future.
I’m sorry, ... I’m still confused...

Who are these morons in the 11-16%?
Serious question.
“Just 16% of U.S. adults now say they have “a great deal” or “quite a lot” of confidence in newspapers...”
It’s only that high because nobody reads newspapers anymore :)

I get my news from the Babylon Bee... 🤓
Even today the media was hyping a poll saying Kamala Harris beats DeSantis for Pres. I mean , really?
Can’t drop very far from “none”.

Our media lets it slide.

Become a libtard journalist.”
Well said.
The newspapers have gotten so skinny that they have failed in their primary mission—puppy training!
My local fish wrap I’m buying tomorrow (printing only on Wednesday and Sunday) so I can wrap fish to send to my friend in Maine. I watch the local Fox news on Friday to get the fishing report...
The low life state of Maryland cannot even run a fair election and count the votes the same day they were cast!!! The NYTs Newspaper reveals and reports the result will not be known for days as Gov, Hogan a RINO...plays with his Democrat scum & vermin to play the vote cheating game, the Democrat Party loves so well!!! Go figure...fellow Americans!!!
Maryland sucks.....that miserable state should be removed from the 2022 Mid Term Elections. Let the folks in Maryland hang out to dry forever with Gov., Larry Hogan tied around their dumb necks and brains!!!
Lower than whale dung on the bottom of the ocean.
Proud to have not watched TV since August of 2008. Don’t own a TV. Internet supplies all the news and entertainment I need.
Never underestimate the stupidity of the normies....
Your reply is exactly as I would have done!
I bow to your excellence.
