Do you trust the media?

[SalesServiceGuy]

New Poll from CBSnews and YouGov for you guys that shows the overall distrust of the media when it comes to the Chinese Coronavirus.
The poll asked 2,493 registered voters questions about America, coronavirus, policy, and the presidential candidates.

According to the 112-page battleground tracker report, only 35 percent of Americans trust the mainstream media for COVID-19 information, while 86 percent of Americans have trust in “medical and health professionals.”

Just goes to show that the media (especially liberal media) may just be entering into a death-spiral.
It's gotten so bad for them that even Don Lemon has been changing his rhetoric the past couple weeks (maybe he'll jump over to FOX where the ratings are good).
They have watched their ratings TANK over the past 3 1/2 years, and are just now starting to take notice, because their terrible news reporting is killing their stations/ networks!

You are believing too much Fox propaganda!


"Wednesday, Sept. 2 Scoreboard: Another Total Viewer and Demo Win for Tucker Carlson

By Jason Lynch on Sep. 3, 2020 - 5:42 PMComment

In the adults 25-54 demo, CNN is No. 2 in total day and MSNBC is second in prime, but Fox News remains on top."



Fox does well with older viewers who are home all day. Not so well with younger viewers where CNN and MSNBC are the preferred media source.

On any given day, the total viewership of CNN and MSNBC combined equals Fox.

Understand that Fox opinion hosts behave the way they do to increase their ratings and thereby their revenues. The Fox hosts are playing/acting a character. They do not actually have to believe or endorse what they say. They just need you to keep watching.

CNN Erases ‘Bay Of Pigs’ Award To Accuse Trump Of Making It Up

CNN tried to fact-check President Donald Trump’s weekend claim that he received the “Bay of Pigs” award Sunday by reporting that no such award exists.
“For those confused by Trump’s claim he got the ‘highly honored Bay of Pigs Award’: He got an endorsement in 2016 from the Bay of Pigs Veterans Association. It’s not an award,” explained network fact-checker Daniel Dale.

For those confused by Trump’s claim he got the “highly honored Bay of Pigs Award”: He got an endorsement in 2016 from the Bay of Pigs Veterans Association. It’s not an award. He has a long history of turning endorsements and other non-awards into awards.

@ddale8




The thing is that it was, according to local news coverage, an unprecedented endorsement from the Bay of Pigs Veterans. So Trump could accurately boast about it. But he often seems to prefer wrongness to even impressive-sounding correctness - no truth too good not to embellish.

Here's the award. It's a hand-painted Brigade 2506 shield. The media will say anything to dismiss President Trump's Hispanic supporters!





Dale doubled-down, calling the award “nonexistent,” which then provoked the Trump campaign to post an official letter from the group confirming the award highlighting their support for the president.

“It was with great satisfaction that we read President Donald J. Trump’s Twitter mentioning the event in which the Veterans Association-Brigade 2506 presented a recognition award, consisting of the emblem used by our patriots during the battle of the Bay of Pigs Invasion, Cuba, 1961,” the group wrote.
“The award was presented to President Trump for the purpose of recognizing his political and social platform, which is in line with the conservative beliefs of our organization and his objectives of ending totalitarian regimes, drug and human trafficking and human rights abuses in our hemisphere and beyond.”

So, it has come to the point where a made up award is something to crow about? I am not trying to diminish the people who presented this or Hispanic voters but, really?

When he got the plaque in 2016, he hadn’t done much.


In fact, he had sent delegations to Cuba to explore building a Trump Tower in Havana and a golf course in Varadero.


He’s no savior from socialism but a wannabe American dictator.


But that’s not something the Brigade wants to talk about.
