Trust in the Media hits a new all time low

Over 50% of Americans do not trust the news media.

[quote]56% of Americans agree with the statement that "Journalists and reporters are purposely trying to mislead people by saying things they know are false or gross exaggerations."
58% think that "most news organizations are more concerned with supporting an ideology or political position than with informing the public."
When Edelman re-polled Americans after the election, the figures had deteriorated even further, with 57% of Democrats trusting the media and only 18% of Republicans.[/quote]

Look at those numbers. More than 1/2 of this country doesn't trust the media.

So.. they turn around and call them untrusting ppl things like terrorists and bible clutching gun nuts..
demonise them to justify the upcoming ‘cleansing’ we’ve witnessed across the globe the last 20 years 🕺😎🍿✂️

they own all three levels of government and have the FBI,CIA,DOJ all the courts, and media in their pockets.

@TheOneyouwerewarnedabout Yeah I am very concerned about what happens the next 6 months are so. I wouldn't be shocked if they tried to pass legislation letting them designate American citizens as enemy combatants and throwing them in a supermax prison.
