The most trusted (and mistrusted) news outlets

[wilts rover]

The survey of which news outlets the British public trust most - and least - makes fascinating reading. No wonder the Tories want to defund the BBC:

This can't be true, we've had individuals on here swearing blind that people have taken the bait hook line and sinker from the right wing media?

In effect this survey makes the excuses of certain individuals look like they failed their own tests and believed the hype because it suited their narrative!

I can't understand why the Viking site isn't on that list.

BST is Marianna Spring and I claim my £5

DD. Forgive me if I'm going to sound patronising, but...well I don't see any alternative if you look at that graph and don't get the point.

There's a sensible, rational group of people in the country that knows which sources it can broadly trust, even though they are not perfect and make mistakes.

Then there's 33% of the population who don't seem to realise that The Mail is an untrustworthy, lying propaganda rag that is publishing shite opinion pieces like this to stoke up the Culture War, because the far right has nothing else left.

Here's the condescending bit. Just because there are a lot of sensible, thoughtful people in the country, it doesn't make the fools who uncritically lap that shite up any less of a problem.

Still, you got a like from Hound, so that's nice.

It's strange that you and your Lefty mates don't include yourselves as part of the 33% of Mail readers when you're preaching to those who, like me, never read it!

If I had the first idea what that is supposed to mean, I might be able to answer it.
