From your link.

CNN’s regular audience is far more skeptical of the political news they receive than Fox News fans.


Mmmmmyeah. Not sure that's a compliment to Fox News viewers.

ACtually, they are middle of the pack and above Fox.
quote:

ABC had the highest credibility rating of any news source included in the poll, with 67% of people calling it "credible" or "very credible." CNN, which President-elect Donald Trump often derided as the "Clinton News Network" during his campaign, was ranked in the middle of the pack — below ABC, CBS, and NBC, but above Fox and MSNBC.

LINK- fun with polls

Not sure you're comprehending. People who get their news from CNN are less likely to trust their news source (CNN).

But remember one thing...one can make a poll say what you want it to say...the wording of the question...the sample sizes and concentrations in all minority areas...I took statistics back in college, and I remember a prof saying something about ''there are lies, damn lies, and then there's statistics!"

Of course. That was part of my point.

Because people who get their news from CNN have rejected literal partisan mouthpieces like Fox and MSNBC and are therefore probably somewhat more critical in how they evaluate information.

I mean CNN is absolute shite, but it ain't Fox...yet. It's getting there, though.

I like the way Ross Perot phrased it, "Figures don't lie but liars sure can figure".

CNN has become a massive, obvious partisan mouthpiece. If you don't see that, you have not been paying attention the past couple of years.

I don't even think MSNBC had a long discussion about internment camps under a Trump presidency. They definitely didn't hand over Town Hall debate questions to the Hillary campaign or spend several news cycles speculating on the possibility that Malaysian Airlines flight 370 went missing because it flew into a black hole. They've basically turned into the left's version of daytime talk radio.

For good reason. MSNBC and Fox are at least honest that they're somewhat slanted in one direction, but CNN continues to lie with a bunch of liberal lying shills that they are unbiased and impartial. And no one is buying it. They personally escalated Trump more so than any other network and actively rigged the election in Hillary's favor over Bernie. The only one worth half a shite on that network is Anderson Cooper, and literally everyone else sucks.

Wait the Onion was listed? Just the fact that the Onion was even debatable from the Americans standpoint proves how far the press has fallen. Deliberately fake news is now seen as being the same as the MSM.
