And that’s a June 2016 poll.

I’d be willing to bet if the poll were conducted now the media confidence numbers would be even lower.

The trust in the news median has been steadily declining for the last 4 decades. It is at its lowest now.

Trump obviously did not cause it. He merely said out load that the emperor has no clothes.

I think it started with Walter Cronkite.

Media is destroying itself. And by the way, Patrick Caddell, Democrat strategist, called the media a domestic enemy of the people way back during the campaign.

I have not seen him around much lately.

I’m going out on a limb and guessing the decades of their blatant lying and bias has something to do with it, but I can’t quite put my finger on exactly what...

Look at the steady decline that has been taking place for years. The thing is they climb up on their high horse and attempt to blame President Trump for their unpopularity. They continue to think we are stupid and that is what is so disastrous about all this. They still refuse to look at themselves or admit any part in their lack of popularity.

Lyndon Baines Johnson who passed the Johnson Amendment. The Johnson Amendment, by silencing the Church with the threat of the IRS, the media had no competing argument for our thoughts and minds. With Trump being elected without the support of the media, he can expose the media for what it has become.
Even Trump has stated he will get rid of the Johnson Amendment.

Dan Rather spent a career lying to viewers about everything from the Kennedy assassination and Watergate to Vietnam and the Middle East. He is maybe the genesis of fake news because when the pawns in the media saw teh acclaim he got and the awards bestowed up him, they all decided that was the way to riches and power.

IMHO. It started with Walter Cronkite and was carried on with Peter Jennings, Dan Rather and Tom Brokaw.
