So this is going to be a 2 link discussion, in preparations for responses - and I would comment that the Washington Post is rather right leaning:

Tv source trusted most
So here's a link to information that came from a liberal think tank that was trying to suggest that Fox News (which is the root of all Liberal evil) was responsible for churning out conservatives (I vaguely remember some discussion threat on here where someone was saying that the Army was doing that as well).

http://www.ijreview.com/2014/06/146409-fox-news-vs-msnbc-trusted-least-trusted-names-news-reported-left-wing-group/#PrettyPhoto[146409]/1/

They survey people and got two data points of the respondents ... are you a Democrat, Republican, or Independent and do you view yourself as Conservative, Liberal, or Moderate?

The comments in the referenced link show a couple of things (I won't repeat .. you can click and see yourself) ... but some that I pulled from it..

- MSNBC is trusted the least by Independents and Moderates. Obviously it's trusted the least by Republicans and Conservatives. It's trusted less than the Daily Show with Jon Stewart amount liberals by almost 2:1 and among Democrats it's on par ... which is a bit confusing because I always hear the left tell me that the daily show is a political satire show and not a real news venue (which they claim that MSNBC is).

There is another table in the link about what are the top priorities that our elected officials should be concentrating on. Good for a chuckle the next time you see a political official trying to push climate change (or are we back to global warming because it's hot outside ... I can't keep track).

Sir,
No surprise Fox leads the way! But, I'm sure it's the left main stream media fault lol I watch CNN the most they're down the middle and not way over the top like Fox and MSNBC.
