Among Republicans, only 6% trusted TV news and 8% trusted newspapers.  Even among Democrat voters, only, 25% trusted TV news and 35% trusted newspapers. For Independents, 9% trusted TV news and 17% trusted newspapers.

Overall, only three American institutions showed trust by a majority of Americans - small business (70% trust), the military (69% trust), and the police (51% trust).  Public schools only showed a 32% trust and Big Tech a 29% trust.
