Most Americans See Media as Inaccurate and Politically Biased
According to a recent Pew Research Center poll, most Americans regard news organizations as politically biased, inaccurate, and callous toward the people they report on.
The percentage feeling this way is even higher among those who get most of their news from the Internet. These people tend to be younger and better educated, and a majority of them condemn news organizations for "failing to stand up for America."
But even among those who continue to line up at the MSM's TV/newspaper trough for their daily dose of propaganda are aware that what they're getting fed does not conform to reality.
Twenty years ago, a majority of Americans trusted the liberal establishment media. Thanks to the Internet, now people know better.

Wish they'd give percentage of how many people thinks it swings each way.
Either way, no surprise. Media has always been liberal, but with less adherence to social mores and norms it's like the leash is off and they run in every direction as long as it's away from traditional values.
