And they are not doing too well in my country at 45% or Australia at 43 or the UK at 36 or France at 29.

On the IQ scale the lowest 29% are close to moron level—sounds about right....

If this was any other category, the media would be clamoring for reform to correct the problem.

Surprised that many people trust them. 95% of the Media has abandoned all journalistic ethics and objectivity in favor of agenda driven, bigoted partisanship.

It’s the one poll that I would believe. It’s totally deserved. US MSM stinks.

Not in the least bit surprising. The U.S. media should be ashamed of themselves and truly embarrassed! My guess is they don’t even have a clue and think it is either a flawed survey OR that it is their RIGHT to shove their BS down everyone’s throats. So screw these surveys.

Really, 29% trust the media! That’s 29% too much. Must be the brain dead democrats and Leftists, they make about 29% of the population.

Of course our media is not smart enough to figure out why.

Reuters Institute ? I wonder if Reuters understands that they're seen as less reliable than any other news outlet in the country?

If I don’t trust the media, I would I believe anything from the Reuters Institute?
