NBC, MSNBC Sink To Bottom Of Who The Public Trusts
By Paul Bedard
JANUARY 30, 2014 AT 4:20 PM
NBC News and sister cable network MSNBC rank at the bottom of media outlets Americans trust most for news, with Fox News leading the way, according to a new poll from the Democratic firm Public Policy Polling.
In its fifth trust poll, 35 percent said they trusted Fox news more than any other outlet, followed by PBS at 14 percent, ABC at 11 percent, CNN at 10 percent, CBS at 9 percent, 6 percent for MSNBC and Comedy Central, and just 3 percent for NBC.
The pollster said Fox won because Republicans are devoted to it. It leads the way because of its continuing near total support among Republicans as the place to go for news- 69 percent of Republicans say it's their most trusted source with nothing else polling above 7 percent, said PPP.

I wonder if your font size is too small ... LOL.
It’s a great platform for spreading the progressive agenda.
The profitability is gravy on top.
They also bought Weather Channel and converted it into a 24/7 pulpit for “climate change”.
Where the best surprise is no surprise.
Yes, kiddies, the letter of today is "B" for "bigot".
Those MEAN republicans who want to kill Big Bird, and "hate" your two mommies.
Be sure to tell your teacher.
GOOD children tell on parents who don't think correctly.
I “trust” MSNBC to always tow the party line regardless of how bad the occupier of the white house does.
The commie indoctrination on PBS is just suttle enough to go over the head of most people.
My wife completely misses it, and it drives me nuts because she wants to listen to it every morning.
OK, I accept that, but don’t they ever wonder why it’s always “Democrats good” “Republicans bad”? Isn’t that a clue that something’s off?
Most American news organizations are just paid Democrat liars.
Ye4s, with the headline “53% of viewers don’t trust FNC”
Precisely the way McCain & Romney won the G.O.P. nomination. A half dozen or so conservative politicians and one flat out liberal and the liberal receives the plurality of the votes.

What the MSM lacks in honesty they make up for
with their vast number of outlets. Quantity trumps
reality every time.
Who is the replacement if Rachel Bieber gets deported
back to Canada?
LOLOL.
Praise God!
No one under 65 watches television news.
It isn’t a matter of “trust.”
It’s a matter of relevancy.
I'm 70 and don't watch TV at all.
I just cancelled my local newspaper because the selection of articles and the way they are written is to influence me...to the left.
I don't believe they even recognize how bad they've become.
They keep losing money and last year reduced their circulation down to only three days a week.
They kept delivering the newspaper a month after I cancelled...I wouldn't answer their calls. I won't give these SOB's a dime to spread that liberal crap.
And THIS clown is bringing up the rear. And we DO MEAN rear.

Thanks for the article!

” - - - 69 percent of Republicans say it’s their most trusted source - - - “ and 35 % of the total polled trust FOX, so 24 % of all those polled are Republicans.
24 % is also about the % of the total voter-aged population in a National Election that is Republican, 24 % Democrat, and 10 % Independent if 58 % of the voter-age population bothers to vote.
Since 24 % of the polled audience is Republican, that means that 24 % of FOX’s income comes from advertising to Republicans.

The Republican Party is THE Engine of Patriotic ideas in America, and it’s diversity is it’s strength.
Those of us that are repulsed by Neo-Democrat RINOs, do not watch Karl “Turd Blossom” Rove, Barnie “Kill the Banks” Franks, Alan “Republicans do it too” Combes, and Juan “How can you say that” Williams. We do tolerate them being the left side of a multi-sided coin.
Our problem is that the left side is presented as a “balance” to a RINO side. The truth is that the Left side and the RINO side are on the same end of the FOX “balance” teeter totter!
It is time to have a change on the FOX News Channel:
*Limit the paid Fox moderator to 10 seconds and only 1 question per 2 minutes of a guests answer.
*Deduct $10 per second from the pay of a FOX Moderator when that FOX Moderator talks over the top of a guests comment. (Billy-O and Neil Cabuto will go broke).
*Restrict to the second 15 minutes of each hour all guests and staff who voice RINO and Liberal viewpoints.
*Hire a FOX Moderator that is at ease with asking guests questions that do not involve RINOs and Liberal Democrats.
*Avoid ever “playing the Devil’s advocate” as it destroys the listener’s focus on what the guest really thinks about a topic.
To summarize for the benefit of CEO Roger Ayles:
1.) Pretend that the people you hire are doing their best to allow the viewer to understand the views of the guests.
2.) Time is money, so give us the information and get out of our way.
3.) Present all sides of an issue through guests that we can relate to.
