Trust in the Mainstream News Media Hits New Low in the US at 28% by Jim Hoft
Fake news peddlers at The Washington Post and New York Times won a Pulitzer Prize in 2018 for their reporting on the Russia collusion scam.
We now know that every bit of this story was fake news and completely manufactured to bring down Trump.
Not a single reporter had the integrity to return their trophy for lying to the masses.
The latest Gallup poll found that American’s trust in the media is at an all-time low.
Just 20% of Americans say they have trust in newspapers, television or radio to report the truth. This number was twice as high at 40% just 5 years ago.
Maybe its all of their lies?
Gallup reported: When Gallup began measuring trust in the news media in the 1970s, between 68% and 72% of Americans expressed confidence in reporting. However, by the next reading in 1997, public confidence had fallen to 53%. Media trust remained just above 50% until it dropped to 44% in 2004, and it has not risen to the majority level since. The highest reading in the past decade was 45% in 2018, which came just two years after confidence had collapsed amid the divisive 2016 presidential campaign.
