Who Do You Trust?


According to a Pew Research Center poll, about 45% of Democrats see CNN as credible, while 26% of Republicans see CNN as credible. Fox is considered credible by 29% of Republicans and 24% of Democrats. So, as you would expect, the two networks are....

... quite happy with the figures?

CNN:
"We're obviously pleased -- once again we've been voted the most trusted news organization in America," says spokesman Matthew Furman.

Fox:
"The study confirms that while our audience continues to increase and our credibility expands, our competitors are hemorrhaging viewers and losing America's trust," says spokeswoman Irena Briganti. She adds: "It's fair to ask why so many Democrats are watching CNN if everyone has to ask why so many conservatives are watching us."
