So what could possibly account for this drop? The answer is simple: the networks refuse to Tell the Truth, and the American people are sick and tired of it. Even liberals (19 percent) and moderates (20 percent) have lost faith in TV news, although, not surprisingly, self-identified Democrats have the highest confidence at 34 percent compared to 17 percent for Republicans and 17 percent for Independents. This shouldn’t come as any shock given the media’s torrid love affair with Democrat superhero Barack Obama.

Whether it’s CBS claiming current tax rates will somehow “cost taxpayers,” or CNN scolding a Republican for being a “sore loser” for not embracing ObamaCare, or The New York Times once again blaming Bush on Obama’s behalf, the media have continued to show a complete contempt for the truth. And those are just a few examples from the past couple of weeks.

How do you think it's going ot turn out?

I hardly watch, watched MSM News, never watched it when it was the MSM's 6:30 pm evening showpiece for news. Those who watched, being preached were already converted. So what the MSM had left were the hardcore watchers to whom the MSM has even managed to turning them off. So utterly blatant are they to make sure their political freak gets in.

They might be tuning mainstream network news out, but that does not necessarily mean they’re looking for other forms of media. Are kids today likely to pay attention to different types of news presentations, or are they just uninterested in any hard news? That’s the key question. These articles assume that since old-style network news is suffering huge (deserved) drops in ratings, a lot of people are tuning in to alternative sources. But is that the case, or are many people just tuning out everything? I have my doubts.

[Repeal The 17th]

I get all of my news from the internet and from talk radio.

I have not watched any network news for several years, including fox or anyone else.

The TV only gets turned on after I first check with tv guide online to see if there are any movies I want to watch...
...or in the extremely rare case when there is a local news issue that I want to know more about (and then I have to filter out the reporter’s slant on the event).

The government in their “wisdom” stopped the TV signals form getting to many places. I don't want to pay money for the cable trash. My computer works better. Take your weak signal ...

When it comes to television news. . .

I’d Rather not.

A very important statistic showed that moderates were much less confident than they were in 2008,

The Obama era will and should result in significant harm to most TV networks and the MSM in general. Only the most rabid leftist could fail to notice how in-the-tank for Obama the MSM has been since he was expected be a candidate in 2008.

The MSM richly deserves ever lost consumer and every lost dollar of revenue that results from their acting as leftist propaganda outlets rather than reasonably objective news organizations.

I “tuned out” many years ago.

I won’t be tunin’ in agin’ !!

[Tupelo]

I have not watched ABCNNBCBS since the early 90s. I Tuned out Fox about 5,6 years ago. However I do watch MSNBC every so often. Those guys are funnier than Larry the Cable Guy. When Ed Schultz, Crissy Mathews and Rachel Maddow get their panties in a wad, I just can’t help laughing out loud.
For news? Internet.

[marygonzo]

they all suck. fox sucks. This country is burning and they are fiddling with Brad pitt and crap. You can’t make this up. We are going places now you will not believe. Get ammo food and water. 1000 gallons of non ethanol gasoline would be gr8.

[WKUHilltopper]

There’s news on the news? What will they come up with next?

[personalaccts]

I watch fox and friends while I get ready for work in the mornings but that’s it. Rush, Internet....
