Poll Results Will Disturb Liberals

Fox Nerws logoQuinnipiac University National poll results were released yesterday and they are sure to disturb liberals who hate Fox News.

Fox News was found to have “the most trusted network and cable news coverage.”

Here’s some of the press release:

FOX News offers the most trusted network and cable news coverage, 29 percent of American voters say, when asked to compare the major TV news outlets in a Quinnipiac University National poll released today. But when network news is examined on a case-by-case basis, FOX drops in the ratings.
In the comparison rankings, CNN gets 22 percent, with NBC News and CBS News at 10 percent each, 8 percent for ABC News and 7 percent for MSNBC, the independent Quinnipiac (KWIN-uh-pe-ack) University Poll finds.
When asked, “Do you trust the journalistic coverage provided by FOX News,” 20 percent of U.S. voters say “a great deal” and 35 percent say “somewhat.” Scores for other networks are:
  • NBC News – 14 percent “a great deal” and 46 percent “somewhat;”
  • ABC News – 14 percent “a great deal” and 50 percent “somewhat;”
  • CBS News – 14 percent “a great deal” and 50 percent “somewhat;”
  • MSNBC – 11 percent “a great deal” and 41 percent “somewhat;”
  • CNN – 18 percent “a great deal” and 43 percent “somewhat.”

Most trusted were local news broadcasts, however.

19 percent of voters trusted them “a great deal” and 52 percent “somewhat.”

  1. What they don’t say is that when PBS is included, it overwhelmingly wins compared to Fox.

    Additionally, you could alternatively say 80 percent of voters don’t trust Fox a great deal while 65 percent somewhat mistrust Fox.

    Regardless, it’s not hard to lead in this poll because Fox is the only conservative network whereas the other networks are overwhelmingly less conservative, so it’s not going to be that hard to win the poll if you have no ideological competition.

  2. Two points- 1. The second largest shareholder at Fox(newscorp) is the Saudi Royal Family. And watching Fox News has been found to make people less informed.

    Media outlets such as Fox News and MSNBC have a negative impact on people’s current events knowledge while NPR and Sunday morning political talk shows are the most informative sources of news, according to Fairleigh Dickinson University’s newest PublicMind survey.

    Researchers asked 1,185 random nationwide respondents what news sources they had consumed in the past week and then asked them questions about events in the U.S. and abroad.

    On average, people correctly answered 1.6 of 5 questions about domestic affairs.

    Because the aim of the study was to isolate the effects of each type of news source, they then controlled for variables such as other news sources, partisanship, education and other demographic factors.

    They found that someone who watched only Fox News would be expected to answer 1.04 domestic questions correctly compared to 1.22 for those who watched no news at all. Those watching only “The Daily Show with Jon Stewart” answered 1.42 questions correctly and people who only listened to NPR or only watched Sunday morning political talk shows answered 1.51 questions correctly.

  3. Just Joe?

    Answered correctly to what “version” of the “news”?

    The media’s version?

    If it came from tevee, it’s a lie.

    Unplug your propaganda machine.

  4. To find out the real news go online and check out other countries’ take on US news.

    We have propaganda given by 5 CEO’s.

    Example, Murdoch from Fox News (a joke) came from Australia where they have universal healthcare and laws to not publicly be able to call other people derogatory names but these people come here to screw us.

    Why else does Walmart have union workers in other countries but we are the low cost workers of the world?

    Why do we not charge tariffs anymore on other countries’ goods and instead we have a trade deficit?

    Why does the US pay higher drug prices than the rest of the world because we have to subsidize and downgrade our people so we can brainwash our people that we are the greatest country in the world.

  5. Faux News ……….

    ALL the ‘American’ MSM is managed ………

    the end result are moronic sheeple who think they’re very well informed …… but are merely little Pavlov pouches who growl and yelp on command ………

    Pawn Hannity and the Liar a/k/k O’Reilly, et al., are just serving up a little different toxic stew than MSNBC’s Lesbian raving libtard-activist Maddow and Chriss “Oddball” Matthews.
