University Poll: Fox News Most Trusted News Source

It’s not just their tagline, apparently it’s reality according to the Suffolk University poll on trusted news sources.

How did Fox do?

FOX News – 28%

CNN – 18%

Undecided -12%

NBC – 10%

Other -10%

MSNBC — 7%

ABC — 6%

CBS — 6%

C-SPAN — 3%

Undecided beats Soros favorite MSNBC?

The news wasn’t so good for MSNBC which finished a distant third to its cable news brethren with just 7% of respondents saying that they trusted the liberal cable news network.

It was a phone survey of over one thousand people from across the country, divided into Northeast, South, Midwest, and West. There were 62 more women than men.It was also a pretty even split between Democrats and Republicans:

and 96% of those polled identified themselves as very likely to vote in 2012.

Some highlights:

– 59% had a favorable opinion of Hillary Clinton

– 50% had an unfavorable opinion of Newt Gingrich

– 70% had an unfavorable opinion of Donald Trump

– 72% disapproval rating for congressional job performance

– 48% believe Obama has not stayed true to his campaign promises, 42% believe he has

– Out of all GOP contenders, the majority would vote for Romney if the election were held today

– Romney trails Obama by only three points

– 53% disagree that raising taxes should be an option for reducing the debt

It’s a pretty even-handed sampling that even the Soros orgs can’t deny.

Very interesting.
