Lost Credibility Seen As Biggest Problem Facing News Media

More than a fourth (27%) of respondents said combating accusations of “fake news” was the single biggest hurdle.

Whether the news media can regain credibility remains to be seen after significant revelations about sloppy reporting came to light in the past few years.
