In a stunning rejection of network news and nightly news anchors, cable news, driven by the Fox News Channel and mouthy Bill O’Reilly, is now the top most trusted source—by a mile.
In a new poll from Boston’s Suffolk University, more than a quarter of the nation says Fox is tops when it comes to who they trust the most and O’Reilly is the most believable.
“This poll shows two things: first, the network news have completely lost their brand. Second, the only network with any intensity is Fox News,” says Brent Bozell, president of the conservative Media Research Center. “Bottom line: the more they attack Fox, the stronger it is getting,” he adds.
I know, liberal heads will explode over this post. They just can’t stand the fact that “Faux News” is number one in the ratings. According to a poll by Suffolk University, Fox News is also the most trusted news source.
The University polled 1,070 people which included democratics (39%), republicans (34%), independents (22%) and other (5%). Question 58 (on page eight) asked: What political news source do you trust the most? The results:
Fox News – 28%
CNN – 18%
Undecided – 12%
NBC – 10%
Other – 10%
MSNBC – 7%
ABC – 6%
CBS – 6%
C-SPAN – 3%
Guess that “Lean Forward” concept isn’t working so well for MSNBC!
