Nearly 90% Of Americans Don't Like The Mainstream News Media?

"A survey conducted by the Pew Research Center for People & the Press said Thursday that 87% of respondents believe celebrity scandals get way too much ink and airtime. Only 8% think the media get the balance between celebrity and serious news right, while 2% told the surveyors that there wasn't enough celebrity scandal coverage."

Do ya think? Is the state of news an attempt by elitists to dumb down the general population as has been done time and again throughout history? Well, it doesn't appear Americans are buying it.
