Americans don’t find the media believable
- Growing media attempts to influence public opinion and policies
- Poor quality
- A strong liberal bent in most media
- Fox News, CNN and NBC as the most accurate
A Sacred Heart University Poll found significantly declining percentages of Americans saying they believe all or most of media news reporting. In the current national poll, just 19.6% of those surveyed could say they believe all or most news media reporting. This is down from 27.4% in 2003. Just under one-quarter, 23.9%, in 2007 said they believe little or none of reporting while 55.3% suggested they believe some media news reporting.
In related news, the US media thinks the public is stupid and easily duped (joke).
