Why do 10% more Republicans distrust the Weather Channel?
Because Trump isn't drawing the storm paths?
What's the Republican beef with Reuters?
Well if accurate this is interesting.
Fox is the only news sources that breaks 50% for conservatives. Everything else less than half trust.
For liberals there are several options which 2/3 of liberals trust.
Yeah, but lower than "the MSM", of CBS, ABC, and NBC? I guess the name is awfully foreign, too...It's European and it lacks US focused editorial content. In other words...too many journalists reporting on facts and stuff.
Compare Reuters content to FoxNews content and becomes painfully obvious why Republicans avoid Reuters.
Also keep in mind that FoxNews is a large entertainment company with programming broadcast everywhere.
FoxNews has labelled all non-murdoch properties as "mainstream media" that is not to be trusted.

Mentions and commentary of climate change. How dare they?!?Why do 10% more Republicans distrust the Weather Channel?
If it isn't from some youtube or twitter basement conspiracy imbecile, it's untrustworthy to them. They need to pretend that they're somehow better informed because they buck the actual news as lies and conspiracies. Again...projection all the way down.I'm surprised at the general distrust of any media by conservatives, even the right leaning stuff.
Hadn't thought of the Youtube or Blog angle, makes total sense.Mentions and commentary of climate change. How dare they?!?

We all know how most of them feel about objective, verifiable facts.
Why no Facebook.Well if accurate this is interesting.

that's crazy that the weather channel only gets 50% of conservatives.
what the hell is wrong with the fucked brains of these people that half of them can't decide if they are being lied to about the fucking weather or not?
seriously, what the fuck is wrong with these self-described humans?
That's depressing on so many levels.

I think the climate denying original founder sold it. That's why.that's crazy that the weather channel only gets 50% of conservatives.

What's interesting to me isn't so much the outlet preferences as the overall degrees of trust. Even Fox only rallies about half of conservatives, at least according to this study.
I'm not surprised by MSNBC and Newsweek ranking low, though. I'd still trust them over Fox and other firmly right-wing outlets, but they hurt themselves by wearing their political allegiances on their sleeves. I just wish the AP and Reuters rated higher, as they're practically legendary for their neutral stances.
It's the collateral damage after years of peddling "fake news" and "you can't trust the mainstream media" bullshit. The message worked so well that even right wing outlets have taken a hit, but so long as AP, Reuters, NYT, and WaPo are universally distrusted by conservatives it's still a win for Murdoch et al.I'm surprised at the general distrust of any media by conservatives, even the right leaning stuff.
