New Gallup Poll: 73% Say That Biased Reporting is a "Major Problem;"
84% Blame Country's Divisions on Media
Via Red State, quoting a Fox News report:
The poll noted an increase in the percentage of Americans who see too much bias in ostensibly objective reporting as a "major problem." According to the poll, 73 percent of Americans share that belief, up from 65 percent in 2017.
Meanwhile, a stunning 84 percent of Americans agree that "the media is to blame for political division in this country," though the same percentage also believe the media "can serve as a healing force."
In perhaps the most stunning findings, almost 80 percent of Americans say news organizations they don’t trust are "trying to persuade people to adopt a certain viewpoint" while just 12 percent say media outlets are trying to report "accurately and fairly but are unable to do so."
