Ben Shapiro The Most Trusted Major Right-Wing Media Personality: Poll | Eastern North Carolina Now

    Publisher's Note: This post appears here courtesy of the The Daily Wire. The author of this post is Daily Wire News.

    A new poll released this week found that Ben Shapiro - the co-founder and editor emeritus of The Daily Wire and host of "The Ben Shapiro Show," the top conservative podcast in the nation - is ranked as the most trusted major conservative media personality.

    The poll from WPA Intelligence surveyed 1,000 verified registered voters across the U.S. in mid-December and found that the most trusted major media personality was Left-of-center comedian Bill Maher, host of HBO's "Real Time."

    Among respondents who were familiar with the personalities, 52% trusted Maher, 49% trusted Shapiro, 46% trusted Joe Rogan, 43% trusted Tucker Carlson, and 42% trusted Jake Tapper.

    Rogan is host of "The Joe Rogan Experience," the most downloaded podcast in the world. Carlson's program 'Tucker Carlson Tonight" was the highest rated show on Fox News.

    The poll found that the total net trust level - when accounting for Democrats, Republicans, and independents - for each of the personalities was Maher +3%, Shapiro -1%, Rogan -7%, Tapper -8%, and Carlson -11%.

    "Ben Shapiro has successfully managed to turn online fame into real-world impact," said WPA Intelligence Principal Amanda Iovino. "Our poll found that he is more trusted by Americans as an accurate source of news than several mainstream media and cable news personalities, including among Independent voters."

    "Among online conservative personalities, there were significant gaps in both fame and trust levels between Shapiro and lesser known influencers," she added.

    The same poll found that former President Donald Trump is leading President Joe Biden nationally by two points in the 2024 presidential race.
