Poll: Getting facts right key to Americans' trust in media
Trust in the news media is being eroded by perceptions of inaccuracy and bias, fueled in part by Americans' skepticism about what they read on social media.
Just 6 percent of people say they have a lot of confidence in the media, putting the news industry about equal to Congress and well below the public's view of other institutions. In this presidential campaign year, Democrats were more likely to trust the news media than Republicans or independents.
Emphasis mine - I knew it was bad but this is beyond belief. And what is the media doing to correct this deficiency?
. . . crickets . . .
