Press accuracy hits two decade low...I wonder why?


The independent Pew Research Center released a not-so-surprising survey.

"Just 29% of Americans say that news organizations generally get the facts straight, while 63% say that news stories are often inaccurate." (9/13/2009, Pew Research)

Only 29% if those surveyed had favorable views of the New York Times. Even the Democrats find the Times unfavorable at 39%...and the scary thing is, this is were the big news networks (ABC, CBS, NBC) get their news from...everything makes sense now!

The whole research article can be found here:
