According to a recent Harris poll.

A majority of respondents—54 percent—said they agreed that China should be "required to pay other countries for the spread of the virus." A majority of independent voters expressed support for Chinese reparations, as did 41 percent of Democrats.

The poll's findings suggest that most Americans, and most Democrats, are not persuaded by the national media's efforts to downplay China's role in causing the pandemic, which in some cases has included the promotion of Chinese propaganda.

For example, 77 percent of Americans and 67 percent of Democrats said China was responsible for the spread of the coronavirus. Almost as many Americans—72 percent—said the Chinese government has not been accurately reporting information about the virus's impact in China; 66 percent of Democrats agreed.

China needs to be dealt with before they become a bigger problem than they already are.

That China has successfully become this influential constitutes a massive failure of our intelligence infrastructure

It doesn't help that they pay off so many of our politicians.

I will say from just living day to day most of my life out here in “flyover country” it is hard to find anyone who speaks of the MSM talking heads as little more than NYC/DC/LA shucksters who have zero connection to and certainly don’t speak to or for “Middle America“.

When I was a kid or younger man, I think many if not most folks still somewhat admired or at least trusted the “5:30 evening National anchor”. Those days are long gone.

MSM



Wonder how long they can keep this facade going? The numbers are damning for them and it is only getting worse. I know there's a ton of Chinese money and influence circulating here, but at some point, they're gonna have to pull back, right? More than half the country is well aware they're espousing Chinese propoganda, only a matter of time until they're broadcasting to noone, then what?

Cronkite at least tried to fake impartiality when he wasn't sabotaging the Vietnam War. I don't remember much about Howard K. Smith (was he ABC or just a reporter?) or Huntley/Brinkley.

This is pretty miserable.

Less than 75 percent of people blame the deceitful Chinese government?

They are obviously to blame for this pandemic in so many ways I can't even list.

But less than 3/4s blame them.

WTF

All this poll shows is how absolute retarded or perhaps evil Democrats are

Imagine not thinking this came from China

And we let those people vote?

It’s strange that even the media doesn’t care about these polls as they continue shitting on the country regardless of their life support numbers

28% of the country is incredibly stupid.

Likely TDS inflicted as well.

In a country of 1.4 BILLION people and showing only 2 deaths yesterday and 1 death today, that tells you all you need to know about their honesty with any damn thing much less this virus.
