Trust Of Right-Wing News Sources By Generation


This new Pew Research Center survey (done between March 19th and April 29th of a sample of 2,901 adults, with the margin of error being 3.7 points for Baby Boomers, 4.8 points for Generation X, and 4.9 points for Millennials) is bad news for right-wing news sources.

While 51% of Baby Boomers trust Fox News, that falls off by 7 points for Generation X, and 16 points for Millennials. Each generation trusts them less than the last one did.

And the same goes for other right-wing sources. None of them is nearly as trusted, by anyone, as Fox News, but they show the same significant drop by generation.

This gives me hope for the future of this country. As us boomers die off, the right-wing hate-mongers are going to find it more difficult to spread their lies.
