Alternative headline: American's Trust in Media Still Too Damn High

According to the survey, just 28 percent of Americans expressed having a “‘great deal’ or ‘fair amount’ of trust in newspapers, television and radio to report the news fully, accurately and fairly.” That figure, Gallup noted, “is down from 31% last year and 40% five years ago,” and “marks the first time the measure has fallen below 30%.”

That number is outrageously high. This is why 28% of the population thinks that Charlie Kirk was shot by a Republican.

Because 28% of the public still get their news from Jimmy Kimmel or rough equivalents, which is precisely why he should have been pulled off of public broadcast airwaves for brazenly lying about the material facts in the Charlie Kirk assassination. But leftists rallied around his apparent first amendment right to abuse public broadcast for deliberate misinformation, and so the media manipulation marches on. These retards and assholes want to get high on demons’ lies. None of them can be helped.

Even if that number is zero, it still isn't low enough.

Shouldn't be just corporate media. I decry the very concept of journalism.

“Journalism” in 2025 is bodycams and unedited cell phone video. We don’t need professional liars translating video recorded events into word spells anymore.
