CAL THOMAS COMMENTARY OCTOBER 17, 2024
WITH FEWER THAN THREE WEEKS TO GO BEFORE THE ELECTION, A NEW POLL SHOWS PUBLIC TRUST IN THE MEDIA AND OTHER INSTITUTIONS HAS REACHED AN ALL-TIME LOW.
IT’S THE SAME FOR CONGRESS.
A GALLUP POLL FOUND JUST 32 PERCENT EXPRESS A “GREAT DEAL” OR “FAIR AMOUNT” OF CONFIDENCE IN THE MEDIA TO REPORT THE NEWS “FULLY, ACCURATELY AND FAIRLY.”
THERE IS AN EASY EXPLANATION FOR THIS. NOT ONLY DO MOST OF THE MEDIA CONFRONT ISSUES WITH A SECULAR AND LIBERAL MINDSET, THEY ALSO FAIL TO REPORT ON LEGITIMATE STORIES THAT DON’T FIT THEIR WORLDVIEW AND SO THEY FOCUS ON THE NEGATIVE AND THE TAWDRY, THE CONTROVERSIAL AND THE DIFFERENCES BETWEEN CANDIDATES. ALMOST NEVER DO THEY CONSIDER SOLUTIONS TO PROBLEMS. THE SAME GOES FOR CONGRESS WHICH IS WHY THEIR FAVORABILITY RATINGS ARE ALSO CONSISTENLY LOW. AT LEAST WITH
CONGRESS VOTERS CAN ELECT SOMEONE ELSE, BUT RARELY DO.
AT LEAST WE HAVE CHOICES WHEN IT COMES TO THE MEDIA BUT YOU STILL HAVE TO DIG FOR THE TRUTH YOURSELF. I’M CAL THOMAS.
