Remember back in days when the news was about, well....the news?

Seems like such a long time ago doesn't it

There's an old polling truism that points out something obvious: If you give people the choice of one green and four shades of blue, green will win. So it is with vote-splitting: five lefties and one rightie running...guess who wins?

And so it is with this poll. Those who don't want an obvious bias on their news will split four ways, and those who trust the outlet that supports their bias know exactly which outlet that is.

What's also notable is that Fox News is the least trusted media outlet for 61% of Americans, far and away the highest number.

A sad commentary on the intelligence (or gullibility) of the average American

Yup. Tell 'em it's just that simple, and you're their man.

LOL... wouldnt brag too much. USA was number two, and they dont even do the news.




You dont get the point as usual. A cable news station actually beat the most popular cable entertainment station. When does that ever happen on broadcast TV, except for 60 Minutes, when there is virtually no entertainment to compete with it.

Well I am glad that's settled.


And this statement from your link pretty much explains it:


“A generation ago you would have expected Americans to place their trust in the most neutral and unbiased conveyors of news,” said PPP President Dean Debnam in his analysis of the poll. “But the media landscape has really changed, and now they’re turning more toward the outlets that tell them what they want to hear.”





Since 65% of FNC viewers are either liberal or independent, the "what they want to hear" line is bullshit.

Can't wait to hear where this statistic comes from?.....Just more lies by people that prove they have no regard for the truth.

Why do you guys insist on being such nutsacks?
