"A generation ago you would have expected Americans to place their trust in the most neutral and unbiased conveyors of news,” said PPP President Dean Debnam in his analysis of the poll. “But the media landscape has really changed, and now they’re turning more toward the outlets that tell them what they want to hear.”
Not tell them the truth, not tell them facts, not even tell them the news; tell them what they want to hear... Of course people trust someone who tells them what they want to hear, it makes them feel better about them self, but it doesn't make them right...
I have no idea what your trying to prove with this poll except continue the divide...

Of course it's an accurate poll. But my point is that trust has nothing to do with accuracy. *NM*
