At least FOX is run by Rupert Murdoch and not a government lapdog like CNN or weak like the BBC. CNN and other CNN-like media have long since stopped caring about the truth and only give news thats easiest to sell to the public. CNN is way more biased than FOX. At least they (FOX) can think for themselves and not blindly feed propaganda to a gullible public (they do it too just less)

I find Fox News more bearable to watch than CNN, BBC and most others 'cept for MSNBC and PBS. All of them are propaganda organs of the state~ Fox News is just straight up with their bullshit... it's a fun spectacle!

It's interesting that no one in this thread has asked about sample size, sample demographics, polling methods, etc. I think everyone is pretty stupid, not just Americans.

1,151 voters (74% white, 63% 46 and older, 9% 18-29) and it was an automated phone survey (Do you trust ABC? Press 1 if yes, 2 if no, 3 if unsure, etc.) Within that, 14% Liberal, 47% Moderate (self-reporting Moderate means absolutely nothing), 39% Conservative, with just 36% Dems, 35% Republican and 29% Independent (most Independents are right-leaning.)

So it's a poll comprised mostly of white, old, conservatives who actually have the free time to complete a ridiculous phone survey. What did you think the outcome would be?

This is a really good point. I just assumed that the poll was incorporating a more balanced demographic due to the reputability of the institute behind it. These are pretty shoddy stats.

CBS's 60 minutes had a incident last year where they not only used photo's from an unreliable source, but doctored the photo to make the people in it look more menacing. They apologized for the source of the photo, but never explained why they decided to make their heads and arms all giant and bloated. The segment was on internet hacking, and these kids are obviously a deadly "cyber gang."

Wow that's pathetic.

I used to watch CNN for my dose of American news, but the quality of their reporting seems to have really deteriorated in the last few years (twitter feeds, anyone?). What would you guys recommend for a professional and neutral news source?


In order for polls to be accurate, they can't pick out a certain amount of certain demographics, they just call houses randomly. If the only people who answer the polls are old, white folks that is not their problem.

PBS is a professional, unbais source.


What? If the only people who answer the polls are old, white folks, that is the VERY DEFINITION OF A BIASED POLL. Go take a stats class...

No. Really? Please no. Even if this is a dodgy poll... it's still scary.

I knew Fox had the highest viewer numbers, but I always told myself it was because of all the stoners who watched it for a laugh... not because people listen and believe what is being said.

Who could blame them? Fox has cool dramatic music and stories that sound like something from a movie. Not only that, it is EASY TO UNDERSTAND!!!

The only thing this poll shows is that republicans are more trusting of right-wing propaganda than democrats are of left-wing propaganda.

fox news is most likely the biggest bullshit propaganda spouting crap in the western world.

the stupid sheep voting for fox(and ofc fox themselves) are the reason why america became such a hated joke where the one who lies&cheats more wins.

Most trustworthy, informative, fair and balanced broadcasts in the history of mankind:

1. FOX NEWS

2. North Korean radio network receivable by pre-tuned, built in radios in everybody's home.

3. Nazi Germany's radio network

(For the sake of fairness, it has to be mentioned that all of these were slightly biased in some way.
#3 was slightly biased against jews
#2 is slightly biased against the US
#1 is slightly biased against human intelligence and thinking in general)

He's taking a bath in the sidecar of the police motorcycle. Cause he's a baller.

Anyways, another poll was done a few months back looking at this question and a few others. What it found was that Fox was the most trusted as well as least trusted

Researchers were asked which national television news organization they trusted most for accurate reporting. Fox News was named by 30.0% of all respondents – up from 19.5% in 2003 and 27.0% in 2007.

Those named most frequently as the television news organization most trusted for accurate reporting in 2009 included: Fox News (30.0%), CNN (19.5%), NBC News (7.5%) and ABC News (7.5%). Fox News was also the television news organization trusted least. Just over one-quarter, 26.2%, named Fox News, followed by NBC News (9.9%), MSNBC (9.4%), CNN (8.5%), CBS News (5.3%) and ABC News (3.7%).

Enough is enough. The only thing this poll is showing me is how stupid the average TL member is.

You're all able to go "har har, Americans are so dumb, they trust bad news" yet the vast majority of people just assumed the poll was accurately conducted (which, if you read the title, you should immediately realize how absurdly impossible it is to prove) and never bothered to look at the easily accessible information source. There's probably a good portion of you that never even clicked the first link.

wow FOX news ? this sucks !

question for al TLers: what news do you watch ?

I mostly Bloomberg and CNBC, cause I work in finance.
Chuck Norris owns the greatest Poker Face of all-time. It helped him win the 1983 WSOP holding just a Get out of Jail Free Monopoloy card, and a green #4 card from the game UNO, against an AAA KK flop and his rival folding AK after Chuck raised him ALL-IN
