Just like its actual ratings, Fox News has hit a record low in the four years that we've been doing this poll. 41% of voters trust it to 46% who do not. To put those numbers into some perspective the first time we did this poll, in 2010, 49% of voters trusted it to 37% who did not.

So does that mean Fox is more mainstream than the mainstream media???

 

[Wonky Pundit]

With so many of the Fox talking heads repeatedly predicting that Obama would lose by a landslide in 2012, it's hardly a surprise that viewers are skeptical now.

 

[Rozman]

I'm sure MSNBC has the highest rating.

It's always a good idea to be skeptical of a news source, listen but do some research and verify. It's more than obvious that Democrats haven't considered this approach.

I suspect most watchers that fit that description are much like you and prefer MSNBC.

No surprise, after the dismal record of the conservatives in congress. I think more and more people are coming to the conclusion that turning back the clock is not going to move the nation forward. The falling credibility of Fox News is endemic to the whole conservative movement.

Just like there are the liberal news watchers who are all the same as you stated. I could name a few here on this board!
