58% of Voters Agree: Media Are ‘Enemy of the People’ – Rasmussen Reports

This is a real problem. with out the media how do you have whistleblowers?

what's the difference between a crackpot and and whistleblower?

I think the world needs more ethical journalists not less.

Can you argue that the current media has a bias and ethical problem absolutely. So, you fix it how? throwing it out?

I think taking personal opinions on ‘media’ in the macro vs micro sense might yield differing results. At a macro level, a majority may not like “the media”, but at a micro level people would have a positive outlook on “the media” from the perspective of what sources they engage with.

Also, media sources do have different flavors, so someone saying “I don’t like all the flavors” is not that surprising.

From what I understand Rasmussen tends to poll deeper into Fox/OAN territory than other pollsters. Not surprising.

I think the real problem is the advertising-supported business model.
