| Abstract | "News organizations in other countries have not experienced the same decline in public trust. A study of public attitudes toward news media in 40 countries found that trust was lowest in the United States. Since Trump left the presidency, other politicians have adopted his tactic of attacking news reporters and their organizations in highly emotional terms. A Republican candidate for governor in Wisconsin criticized the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel for publishing a story about his donations of money to anti-abortion groups, churches and other organizations. The candidate, Tim Michels, said after publication of the article: "I believe people should just, just be ready to get out on the streets with pitchforks and torches with how the liberal media has become. People need to decide 'Am I going to put up with this? Am I going to tolerate this, taking somebody that gives money to churches or cancer research and use that as a hit piece in the media?' I'm appalled. It's disgusting." The executive editor of the Journal-Sentinel, George Stanley, defended the report and said it ran the same day as a piece about how much the Democratic candidate for U.S. senator was spending on security"-- Provided by publisher. |
