According to a new bombshell report released by Gallup and the Knight Foundation, 94% of Republicans have lost some trust in the media. They aren't alone; 75% of independents and even 42% of Democrats say the same thing. Overall, nearly 7 in 10 adults report a loss of faith in the news. What is going on?

In today's world of instant social media news, media outlets are in such a hurry to be the first to scoop a story that they can't/don't/won't vet information.

For this they could/should be held liable for incorrect "news".

Most of CNN/MSNBC has lost all journalistic integrity IMO.

Why do you folks always assume that because people have a problem with CNN that they are automatically less intelligent and Rabid FOX viewers. Quite the assumption if you ask me

Denis made a statement about 2 of the larger networks yet didn't mention the one w/the highest ratings. I pointed out that Fox seems to have "less journalistic integrity" than the 2 mentioned.

Maybe he gets his news from NPR?

I wonder if these thorough studies, were done by the same people who said Hilary was going to win in a landslide.

Fox exposes bias in most of the media, and I'm supposed to be shocked when those same people slander Fox.

Yawn.
