Will Americans Ever Trust The Media Again?

Average Americans no longer trust the media to tell the unvarnished truth about what's going on in our country and the world. June's media indexes show that, whatever else our major news and information outlets might have going for them, trust among the reading public isn't one of them.

How much trust do you have in the traditional or established news media to report the news accurately and fairly?

  • Just 34% of Americans say they trust the “traditional” media while 58% say they have no trust.
  • Only 12% describe themselves as having a lot of trust and 22% have a “quite a bit” of trust. On the other side, 27% have “no trust at all” and 31% express “little trust.”
  • The media’s pervasive bias and failure to report on significant events has severely damaged the reputation of the media.
