Media Fairness Caucus: Americans Don’t Trust National Media


Washington, Jul 14 -

It’s hard to find any organization that is less-trusted than the national media. 

Just 8 percent of Americans trust the media, according to a new Zogby public opinion poll.

Eighty-eight percent say they have little or no trust in the media – by far the worst rating of any organization mentioned.

In comparison, the poll found that Americans trust major high-tech companies and even the social networking website Facebook more.

This is the latest of many recent polls showing the public has lost faith in the national media. 

 If the media want to restore Americans' trust, they should stop the liberal spin and report the facts.
