  1. Democrats really, really trust their news outlets, despite all evidence that they shouldn’t.

    1. Notice the range goes from 10 to 70. Would look even worse if it went from 1 to 100. Also, headline should read: “substantially less than 1/2 of all people surveyed believe anything any mainstream media has to say about anything ever”, or “democrats are 25% more gullible than the average American adult”

  2. Only 50% of Americans trust the weather channel. That’s hilarious. I know that the Weather Network turns every extreme weather event into a climate-change testimonial. And who are the 10% of Republicans who trust CNN, The Guardian and MSNBC? Are they the people who didn’t answer the phone?

    PS Elon has had a number of good posts recently. His Trudeau isn’t Hitler post was on the mark.

  3. The Weather Channel would be a lot lower if Republicans visited their Global Warming nonsense on their website and didn’t form an opinion based solely on the TV station.

  4. Something is up
    I’d bet money on Elon running for office soon.

    That or he’s buying the weather channel

    Would I vote for him?… Unlikely

    SpaceX is interesting but Tesla is a joke.

    1. Tesla is a joke

      One of my fellow tenants now has one of those jokes parked close to my truck.

      1. You afraid your truck might catch something….suggest moving it. Perhaps to 1956?

  5. CNN got these wrong: Russia gate, Hunter Biden laptop, Covington kids, good people on both sides hoax, Kyle Rittenhouse, etc., etc.

    Around 65% of Democrats trust CNN. This goes to show that a substantial percentage of Americans ask to be lied to. CNN is delivering what they want.

  6. It doesn’t show trust, it shows sides.
    The majority of the media orgs are on the Democrat’s side.
    It’s confirmation bias for Democrats.

  7. Send both Tucker Carlson’s and the CBC’s “Shanghai Screaming” stories to your Liberal friends and ask them which is more complete and informative of the two stories.
    Your Liberal friends won’t watch Tucker Carlson and will tell you “The CBC” while making the next half day of your life about how awful Tucker Carlson is, while avoiding Shanghai human rights abuses and all the messy dead pets.

    1. rich,

      The advice to send stories to Liberal friends is not constructive, sad to say.

      You’ll find that many of them simply refuse to look at evidence, no matter how credible, and actually get pissed off at you.

      I had a friend who kept sending me daily clippings from left wing sources about how the Mueller inquiry had all the goods to put Trump and his family into the slammer. I made the mistake of sending him the Mueller report section that showed no collusion between Trump and the Russians. He hasn’t spoken to me since.

  8. L – In Canada, the Trudeau regime has already, in effect, nationalized the legacy media(print/tv/radio) for the purpose of indoctrination. This serves his ultimate goal of making Canada, the first post nation-state; and into his version of a (Chinese Communist Party style) Basic Dictatorship.

    A free and democratic society requires a free press dedicated, at least, to “In the absence of facts. There is no truth. There is only ideology.”(Sultan Kinish)

    Citizen generated digital media needs to coalesce into a parallel media rivaling, then burying
    their legacy counterpart via a pursuit of truth, in the service of the love of Canada. The national dream resurgent is an untapped potential; one which the Truckers Freedom Convoy proved is still extent, yearning to breath free, as a light in the darkness, A Mari Usque Ad Mare.
