Harvard Poll Shows USA is Woke: Majority Say Mainstream Media Publishes Fake News

“Fake News” has become the buzzword that the dying mainstream media has been using to dismiss alternative viewpoints that may appear on the internet or in alternative media. While it is true that there are a large number of satire sites and clear disinformation sites on the web, mainstream media sources are focusing on alternative media websites who do not share their views politically and attempting to associate these sites with the “fake news” phenomenon.

Luckily, however, it seems that the public is not buying this recent propaganda campaign. A poll conducted by the Harvard-Harris group found that 65 percent of voters believe that the mainstream media is guilty of distributing false reports.

Harvard-Harris co-director Mark Penn believes that the extreme polarization on cable news channels is playing a major role in this negative perception that has been developing.

That's ironic. Always accuse your enemies of that which you are doing I suppose.

This is so sad people are suffering or suffer for the lies of the media.

Most people believe the news is fake but most people just stop watching and they dont look for alternatives which is why we get stuck with mainstream politicians because the people that vote are mainstream with the rest saying its rigged. Hey check out my blog I just posted about Some spending cuts that trump would like done its not much but its something.

Glad to hear of these 'findings'. I have written about this myself and have spoken to my daughters school about NOT allowing the BBC into the school. They have recently teamed up with the Barclays Premiere League(That's Soccer. Just in case you are from the US). Apart from the abysmal effort they have put into the production, they have deemed it responsible to have a Football team mascot, splattered in gambling website logos. Absolutely backwards world we live in. In relation to your mentioning of tarring groups with a broad label. That is happening to those in the UK who support the UK's Common-Law constitution. They have been infiltrated by the likes of Tommy Robinson and groups such as 'The White Dragons'. Shill's who have been paid to undermine any remnants of our old laws. Donald Trump was reported as promoting Britain first video's, a group fronted by Tommy Robinson. It's all a big mess and I choose to be suspicious of anything that enters the mainstream. They choose what we see and they control what we hear, so even the latest buzz around Donald Trump is hard to believe. He may appear to be a 'Real American' but I very much doubt that. If they wanted rid of Trump they would poison him, nice and quiet like.
Great post. Up-voted, followed and re- steemed
Don't believe the hype!

This promising news is also due to great alternative sources like The Free Thought Project, The Corbett Report, as well as higher education sights that focus on getting to the root of the problem. Sights like Tragedy and Hope, School Sucks, and Gnostic Media focus on the critical thinking skills that help get to the bottom of what's happening, who's behind, and how they're getting away with it. Thanks for posting.
