Not a surprising result, though maybe the fact that Harvard says it will convince some people that Trump is right.
Notice who is/is not included in the study: stuff like this contributes to the idea that those outlets listed, the MSM, are the only legitimate sources of news -- and that they matter.
But I would like to see the stats on viewership. I bet InfoWars gets more hits than some of the networks. In fact, I bet if the WaPo and NYT were not propped up by millionaires, they would have gone bankrupt long ago.
Which means the MSM is increasingly irrelevant. And given the 92-8 ratio of negative to positive coverage, deservedly so.
(It also means reforms are needed, but that's another discussion)
