Public trust in the media's integrity and performance has soured significantly in recent months, with big media credibility continuing to sink, the latest I&I/TIPP Poll shows.
"Generally speaking, how much trust do you have in the traditional or established news media to report the news accurately and fairly?".
"Generally speaking, how much trust do you have in the alternative news media to report the news accurately and fairly?".
For the more mainstream "Established" media in the first question, the poll shows how poorly in the public's esteem the news outlets are: Only 37% of those who responded said they had either "a lot of trust" or "Quite a bit of trust" in the media.
In May the Traditional Media Trust Index - a reading over 50 indicates trust, a reading below 50 a lack of trust - fell to 41 in May from 44.6 in April.
A similar pattern was evident in the Alternate Media Trust Index, which dropped to 36.9 in May from 39.2 in April.
In short, the trust trend for all major media appears to be weakening significantly.
It's becoming increasingly difficult to discern fact from fiction, and unfortunately the media has a strong bias. They spin stories to make conservatives look bad and will go to great lengths to avoid reporting on the good that comes from conservative policies. There are a few shining lights in the media landscape-brave conservative outlets that report the truth and offer a different perspective. We must support conservative outlets like this one and ensure that our voices are heard.
