Axios: "Trust in Media Hits New Crisis Low"

By the numbers: For the first time ever, fewer than half of all Americans have trust in traditional media, according to data from Edelman's annual trust barometer shared exclusively with Axios. Trust in social media has hit an all-time low of 27%.
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.

I imagine part of that loss of trust was due to Fox " News " viewers realizing that Fox was just CNN with country music guests in the morning.

And who are the 18% of Republicans who "trust" the media? I know all of NeverTrump and Conservative, Inc. does -- they believe everything their media Twitter frenz tell them -- but they're only 8% of Republicans. (And a lot of them have finally, officially acknowledged that they are no longer Republicans.)

So who are the rest of them?

The big picture: These numbers are echoed across the rest of the world: They're mostly not a function of Donald Trump's war on "fake news".
As vaccine rumor hunter Heidi Larson puts it, "we don’t have a misinformation problem, we have a trust problem."
News organizations have historically relied mainly on advertising income, and as those dollars flow increasingly to Google and Facebook, that has created institutional weakness that shows up in trust data.

Oh no -- you mean there will be more layoffs?!?!

Check out the below. Forbes says that Biden didn't lie about not banning fracking, he merely "created confusion" by previously "mistating his position" in debates against Sanders and then Trump.

Oh, is that all? Well, at least he didn't lie about his position in critical debates. He just "created confusion" by "mistating his position."

And the leftwing media goes from Covid Crisis! to Covid Threat Receding on the day of Biden's inauguration:

13 willowed, yet on topic:

423 anecdote:

I met six total strangers last night after going to my daughter's basketball game last night. Well, five strangers and one friend. And this is a team organized for homeschoolers, and they play against private schools, probably all Christian schools. Anyway these were team parents so we're filtered for a fairly conservative mindset, probably.

But I didn't know them and no one was taking politics. Near the end of the time (as we waited for our girls) Covid came up and I made a fairly anodyne comment about the "interesting" changes to testing the WHO had announced.

Instant response, big response--everyone knew, everyone was pissed, etc etc. It was comforting to run into a group of strangers and find out they're as red pilled as any moron on this site.

Posted by: REDACTED at January 22, 2021 12:51 PM (zZxh0)

The Media is a HUGE problem. But the current outfits cannot be remade or reformed from outside, other than by reducing their viewers and readers to zero.

They have no incentive to change, at this time. They cannot be made to change by appeals to their duty as professional journalists. Because there is no such duty that they signed-up for. A journalist's only enforceable contract is an employment contract. No journalist ever swore to, or signed a contract saying, "I will report only the facts, impartially."

We not only see how they abuse the truth for an emotional response and ratings, we see how this has fed into harmful, job-killing state policies.

132 58% think that "most news organizations are more concerned with supporting an ideology or political position than with informing the public."

Now, I'm no mathemagician, but I can do arithmetic. And arithmetic tells me that this means - if the poll is correct - that a staggering 42% of the American public think that the press outfits are in the business of reporting news instead of pumping out propaganda to promote their ideology.

This is a huge problem indeed, and we all need to take notice of it. This 42% needs to be directly addressed and reduced. The press will do some of this all on its own, but I doubt that will whittle figure past 35% or so. What to do about them? I suspect the bottom is around 15%, and we need to get there. Billboards? Guerrilla marketing? How do we drop that disappointing and dangerous proportion of people who trust the press?

It's true!

Lots of these clowns got their big breaks, doing overseas assignments, and masquerading as impartial reporters, were indeed part of the propaganda machine.

Many were specifically on the CIA (and before them OSS) payroll. The guild itself is keenly aware of who was in bed with whom (in more ways than one), and kept the secrets. Everyone had/has secrets. And if you DID try to out your competitor as a spy, well, that wouldn't go so well. You know, journalism is a dangerous profession. People die. In strange and interesting ways, sometimes.

The DOE recently announced that this will be the last school year for the current elementary school Gifted & Talented (G&T) system.

Unpossible, I was told repeatedly that he is a foreign policy expert, an expert who brought much to the inexperienced Obama white house.

In any case, Biden isn't making any calls other than for another pre-teen to be brought to his room and to find Matlock on TV. Its the radical harpy convention that's in charge of everything now.

Need a different mechanism. Most of their power comes from affiliates. ABC doesn't own the spectrum license in your town (unless you're in NYC or LA), your local affiliate's holding company does.

Buy airwaves are public property under the current model, no? They are clearly not in the public interest. So what I would love to see - and it would have similar net effects - is to issue orders to all affiliates of, say, NBC, that NBC programming has been declared to not be in the public interest. They have 14 days to disaffiliate or lose their spectrum license.

They can join a different network, form a new one, go independent, whatever - but they're no longer in the affiliate network.

383 What is happening to the trust in media is rectification.

Essentially, the magic spells of the 'media' are being dissipated by demonstrable actions and stubborn facts that cannot be denied by the general public. Baghdad Bob was an extreme example but the media is rapidly becoming that Baghdad Bob.

People notice that crime is up, the economy is sucking now, the elites ignore any covid regulations, the war machine is ginning up, Joe Biden has no popularity, the Uniparty consists of liars, weasels, and traitors, that elections were stolen by fraud, corporations hate their customers and are trying to eliminate them, rights and liberties are being trampled, and that every day it costs more for necessities of life.

When the media denies these things are occurring, people increasingly notice and spot the lies, omissions of the truth, exaggerations, and maliciousness. The older Mockingbird generation of bought but educated journalists told the truth when it suited them. The current generation lacks the skills to even lie convincingly anymore--you can see the ventriloquist's lips move.
