Congress, Journalists Rank Among the Worst Professions For Honesty and Ethics According to New Survey

A new Gallup poll asking Americans to rank the honesty and ethics of different professions placed journalists and members of Congress low amongst groups such as car salesmen.

Congressional members actually tied car salespeople with a mere 8 percent rating them highly, with advertising practitioners coming it slightly better at 10 percent.

Rounding out low-ranking groups were business executives at 17 percent, lawyers at 21 percent, and journalists at 28 percent.

The top two professions should come as no surprise in a normal year, let alone in the midst of a historic pandemic – nurses at 89 percent and doctors at 77 percent.

Police officers came in at number five, with 52 percent.

With police officers being the subject of defunding pushes by the left and the media, one has to wonder why there isn’t a larger outcry to defund or abolish far more detestable institutions such as the media and Congress.

As Reagan said, "They say politics is the World's Second Oldest Profession. I've noticed it bears a striking resemblance to the First."

And 28% approve of journalists???

I don't believe it!

So where did Judas Judge Roberts fit in on this scale? His number has to be Complex because his integrity is imaginary.

Nobody believes News reporters anymore. They are weakened with no credibility.

I don’t know why anyone outright trusts doctors and nurses. Clearly these people haven’t been to the VA.
