MSNBC is considered to be more trustworthy by Democrat voters than CNN, according to a recent survey from Rasmussen Reports. A total of 23 percent of Democrats trust MSNBC compared to the 22 percent who trust CNN.
CNN has faced a number of challenges since it’s hyper-editorialised, anti-Trump derangement, post-2015. Recently, the network fired its CEO Chris Licht for having the temerity to host a former President and presidential front runner in a town hall where he mopped the floor with the channel’s newest nightly anchor, Kaitlin Collins.
The most trusted corporate media organization is still Fox News, both amongst the American public and Republican voters. But the numbers are hardly solid. Just one in four – 25 percent – of Americans “trust” Fox News, with that figure increasing to 43 percent amongst Republican voters. Notably, Democrats trust Fox News more than they trust ABC, CBS, and NBC News.
Media Bias.
Rasmussen also asked the 1,005 likely US voters: “Is the problem of bias in the news media getting better or worse? Or is the problem about the same as usual?”
A majority of 58 percent told Rasmussen they believe media bias has worsened, including almost half of Democrats – 42 percent – and a whopping 68 percent of Republicans. Only 13 percent of the respondents believe that media bias has improved.
