Trust in the media has collapsed to an all-time low as the American people find nearly everything the left-wing media says to be a lie.
Gallup’s annual poll on how Americans view the media reveals that the level of trust has fallen, yet again, as it has for every year in more than a decade.
Indeed, the news for TV news is the worst it’s ever been as TV is now the second least-trusted institution in America, with only Congress lower.
As Gallup notes:
Americans are less confident in major U.S. institutions than they were a year ago, with significant declines for 11 of the 16 institutions tested and no improvements for any. The largest declines in confidence are 11 percentage points for the Supreme Court — as reported in late June before the court issued controversial rulings on gun laws and abortion — and 15 points for the presidency, matching the 15-point drop in President Joe Biden’s job approval rating since the last confidence survey in June 2021.
Glenn Greenwald posted screenshots of the results:
The only reason these pitiful numbers for trust in media aren't zero is because Dems — of course — trust the media in far larger numbers (35% for newspapers) than GOP (5%) and independents (12%). Same with TV news.

The institutions that rated highest were small business and the military. But for sure, Biden is working hard to destroy the reputation of the military.
