Poll: 77 Percent Believe Traditional Media Guilty of Fake News
Nate Church
2 Apr 2018
According to a survey by the Monmouth University Polling Institute, the vast majority of Americans believe that mainstream media outlets report “fake news.”
A whopping 77 percent of over 800 respondents relayed their distrust for major news organizations in both television and print — a marked increase from the 63 percent that was already skeptical a year ago. Of those, 31 percent believe it to be a regular occurrence, while 46 percent see it as a more occasional issue.83 percent of those questioned believe that special interest groups intentionally seek to implant the mainstream news cycle with false information. Moreso, 87 percent believe that those same forces influence social media such as Facebook, as well as YouTube.

It has been fake as long as I can remember. It is just the information age makes it more obvious. Lefties generally get journalism degrees. Capitalists generally get business degrees.IP: Logged |

^He didn't exclude Fox?
The article had a Trump quote excluding Fox, but that doesn't mean the poll did. IP: Logged |

I read articles from all of them, I don't watch any of the big news networks anymore. Except some of Tucker Carlson, because he's hilarious. Every segment of each program is injected with opinions, sometimes you don't notice it, other times is blatantly obvious. That is not what a journalist is supposed to be, there's an entirely different area, on the other side of actual facts...for opinions. Breitbart has been worse in this sense too, but at least they're not trying to carry out some agenda all the time. It's just kind of ridiculous that people have to fact check the fact checkers in this age of modern technology. That's why people don't trust the MSM. IP: Logged |

I wouldn't exclude Fox either! Chris Wallace and Shep Smith are right at the top of my "Never Watch" list. IP: Logged |

You've sung the praises of Fox, plenty of times. You don't like those two, because they tell the truth about Rump. IP: Logged |

Yeah, Fox tells the truth about Trump.This is the truth they tell. After more than a year and a half of investigating Trump, the FBI and Mueller can't find a single thing to pin on Trump. After almost a year of the Mueller investigation into Trump collusion with Russia, Mueller told Trump attorneys that President Trump IS NOT A TARGET OF A CRIMINAL INVESTIGATION! That's the truth about Trump that Fox News tells. That's discouraging news for the leftist lunatic set. IP: Logged |

Newsflash.. its not dependent on what you think either, except to you. Nor on what Don Wan says. An admitted truth twister.. great facts there 😉Maddow has outstripped Hannity in ratings oh dear. Because SOOO many people believe Sean! Not... Fact is its actually easier to glean truth from those whose opinions are obvious than from those who pretend to be cold sober Fact-ists. Unless you believe the opinion of everyone you meet that is, in which case it really doesnt matter because you're a lost cause. IP: Logged |

CNN: #MichaelCohen's offices were raided by the FBI and Trump floated the idea of firing
Mueller. MSNBC: #MichaelCohen's offices were raided by the FBI and Trump floated the idea of firing Mueller. Fox News' Tucker Carlson: Pandas. #TuesdayThoughts So as per JWHop, it is all fake news? Cohen was not raided? CNN reported Trump winning the 2016 Election. Must be Fakew News. Maybe Obama is still the President... OOOPS! I gave away the secret.
US Intelligence thinks Trump is illegitimate and hence are still loyal to Obama.
Has to be real news because CNN did not report it.

Thanks for showing that among all the other things you don't know anything about, we can now include "Attorney Client Privilege". IP: Logged |
