Sit down for this shocking statistic… 75% of Democrats trust the media.
Via IBD:
It may be hard for many educated voters to believe, but fully six out of every 100 Americans still find the news media Very Trustworthy.
That compares with a proportion twice as large (12%) who find the country’s professional deliverers of news Not At All Trustworthy.
A new Rasmussen Reports survey of 1,000 likely voters reveals that more than four-of-ten Americans (41%) believe the average media reporter (and most of them are average) is more liberal than they are. Those voters who believe reporters are more conservative than they totals 18%, presumably alcoholics for the most part.
Fully 75% of Democrats find that media reporters are at least Somewhat Trustworthy. About half that proportion of Republicans (38%) and a minority of independents (49%) agree.
