The media’s non-stop attacks are backfiring on them in a big league way. A new poll from Emerson College shows that the public trusts the Trump administration more than the press. Is anyone surprised?
The Hill reports:
Trump administration seen as more truthful than news media: poll
The Trump administration is more trusted than the news media among voters, according to a new Emerson College poll.
The administration is considered truthful by 49 percent of registered voters and untruthful by 48 percent.
But the news media is less trusted than the administration, with 53 percent calling it untruthful and just 39 percent finding it honest.
The numbers split along party lines, with nearly 9 in 10 Republicans saying the Trump administration is truthful, compared with more than 3 in 4 Democrats who say the opposite.
The Emerson poll found that 69 percent of Democrats think the news media is truthful while 91 percent of Republicans consider the Fourth Estate untruthful.
Do you think the media will shift their tactics and try to be more honest in light of this news?
Of course they won’t.
It’s amazing how far the media has fallen in recent months. They still don’t even understand why Trump won. They’ll likely keep up their antics until they hit rock bottom.
