Gallup: Trust in Establishment Media Hits Record Low
Breitbart ^ | 10/15/2024 | Wendell Husebø

Posted on 10/15/2024 11:41:17 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

Americans’ trust in the establishment media to report current events “fully, accurately and fairly” plummeted to a record low in 2024, Gallup polling found Monday.

The decline in trust indicates the media lost credibility due to pushing false narratives, such as Hunter Biden’s laptop story, Russian collusion, the source of the 2020 pandemic, the January 6 investigation, and numerous hoaxes:

As a result, only 31 percent of Americans have a “great deal” or “fair amount” of confidence in the media to tell the truth, one point below its low watermark of 32 percent in 2016 and 2023.

31% ?? That has to be the crowd that has bought into the leftist lies. Anything anti-Republican is a positive for the liberals.

I don’t see this making any difference to the “media.”

They seem to sail on, oblivious.

They may not trust them, but they are still surely influenced by them. Otherwise, the establishment media wouldn’t bother trying.

The media, especially of late, is not even subliminal in how they promote their bias

Their hostility is open, raw and in the opposition's face.

We’ve heard that a lot. How then do you have 50% percent of those living in the U.S. getting ready to vote for the Banana Split and her Tampon Boi? They buy everything the “media mafia” vomits at them. Hook, line and sinker.

Gallup is part of the Propaganda Media, which means the trust is far, far lower than they’re reporting.

People trust the media a little more than guys who have a van parked at the curb with the back doors open and are selling Rolex watches and women’s designer handbags he says aren’t knockoffs despite 80% off the prices.

The Democrat trust numbers are very revealing. That should be the real story.

I have a hard core Democrat lefty relative.

Do you know what he thinks is the most important issue facing the nation.

Nazis. According to him they are hiding everywhere.

He explains that he gets his information from “the news”.

Lol.

The Rothschilds and their ultra wealthy ilk owns and controls the world’s dominant media corporations and they have tight control over and what is allowed to be reported to the people. Truth is not their friend. It’s all about their NWO goals and their control of the world. They have unlimited amounts of money so they don’t care about any boycott or backlash against their propaganda machines. Just my sense.

"Gallup: Trust in Establishment Media Hits Record Low"

The trust level is so low, the percentage is not a real, but instead an imaginary number.

The only thing that seems odd to me is that they don’t really care. They must feel that what they’re doing for the Democrat Party is more important journalism. I guess they don’t really consider themselves journalist, but party activists.

It’s because they’ve sold themselves for a ticket on that Harris train like a two-dollar-whore.
