Confidence in newspapers has hit an all-time low in the latest Gallup survey, and TV news is also at a new low, the latest proof that Americans are losing faith in the media.
According to The Washington Examiner, Gallup found that just 20 percent have confidence in newspapers, a 10-point drop in 10 years. TV news saw an identical 10-point drop, from 31 percent to 21 percent.
Of all the institutions Gallup surveyed on, Congress is at the bottom, with just 9 percent having confidence in America's elected leaders, a finding that is clearly impacting the direction and tone of the 2016 elections.
