This will give liberals fits:
This really should have been released last week, which was of course the best news week evah, but we’ll take it.
Our newest survey looking at perceptions of ABC News, CBS News, CNN, Fox News, and NBC News finds Fox as the only one that more people say they trust than distrust. 49% say they trust it to 37% who do not.
CNN does next best at a 39/41 spread, followed by NBC at 35/44, CBS at 32/46, and ABC at 31/46.
The survey goes on to note how liberals, naturally, trust the old media more than they do Fox, and vice versa for conservatives. We’ve got two Americas, all right – and they are not even on speaking terms, at the moment.
This problem would be solved if the old media would just admit to their liberal bias and spice up the day with a few more conservative shows – Fox would probably follow suit with some more liberal-minded shows and we’d all benefit from having not only different points of view, but having those views available to us in a format we like.
Unfortunately, the old media is still wedded to the idea that they are unbiased (while the far left is still convinced that outside of Olberman, the entire media is right wing). The members of the old media like to think back to Murrow and they want to pretend that they are just tribunes of the truth – that Murrow, himself, was a liberal hack doesn’t seem to occur to them.
For now, this just means the old media will continue to weaken – eventually the stock holders will demand profits and we might see some changes.
