The Post Millennial: 'A new poll shows that Canadians are increasingly concerned that they are being misled by societal leaders. Topping the list of least-trusted groups are journalists, with a majority of Canadians saying that they do not trust the media.
'Global communications firm Edelman recently released their 2022 Trust Barometer, a report that covers public responses to societal institutions and issues. Trust in the media remains low.
'Traditional media was the only source of news and information that came out above fifty percent, with search engines, owned media, and social media ranging from forty-nine to twenty-one percent, respectively. A full seventy-one percent of Canadians say they worry about "fake news being used as a weapon," with a majority concerned they are being mislead by societal leaders.'
