MSNBC Anchor Says People Don’t Trust Or Believe Mainstream Media Anymore

It looks as if MSNBC anchor Katy Tur had a rare moment of self-reflection over the weekend

She wondered if, as a reporter, she was actually “doing more harm than good” as trust in the media plummets to an all-time low.

Promoting her memoir “Rough Draft, during an interview with The Hill, Tur admitted that she had considered quitting the ‘news business’ because the public “don’t trust” mainstream media sources anymore.

She even wondered if she had somehow contributed to that lack of trust.

According to a new Gallup poll trust in the media – newspapers and television – “is hitting an all-time low,” she pointed out. 

“People don’t trust us, they don’t believe us, and it makes me wonder if this job, as I am currently doing it, is effective, but if it’s doing more harm than good.”

Infowars reports: Much of the reasons people no longer trust institutional media are due to the fact people like Tur herself for years peddled fake news, amplified political talking points, or suppressed real news stories – like that of Hunter Biden’s now-infamous laptop.

Here are some egregious examples from Tur herself over the years:

In April, Tur claimed that there would be “real and devastating consequences” if Twitter allowed former President Trump back onto its platform after banning him permanently in January 2021.

Tur peddled fake news in 2020 that North Korean dictator Kim Jong-Un was “braindead.”

Tur also called people who protested against ineffective forced lockdowns during the beginning of the COVID scare as “just plain dumb.”

In May 2020, during a segment of Tur trying to shame people into wearing masks, a maskless bystander called out MSNBC’s cameraman for also not wearing a mask.

In 2019, Tur claimed that special counsel Robert Mueller had “found quite a bit” of evidence against Trump regarding “Russian collusion.”

After a two-year investigation, Mueller found nothing, and the Russia collusion narrative fell apart.

That same year, Tur called for Trump to be impeached, falsely claiming that he “targets Americans” and “intimidated witnesses.”

In 2018, Tur absurdly claimed Hillary Clinton “had a much deeper relationship with faith” than Trump.

  1. No one’s ever trusted the media. Journalists were second only to lawyers as the most hated professionals for decades.
    And now the corruptions are the moderators of social media’s to and its disqusting. The entire Internet is just msm in disguise, sometimes passive agreesive, sometimes disingenuous but always manipulative and devious and deceiving.

  2. U.S. Repeals Propaganda Ban, Spreads Government-Made News to Americans

    For decades, a so-called anti-propaganda law prevented the U.S. government’s mammoth broadcasting arm from delivering programming to American audiences. But on July 2, 2013 that came silently to an end with the implementation of a new reform passed in January. The result: an unleashing of thousands of hours per week of government-funded radio and TV programs for domestic U.S. consumption in a reform initially criticized as a green light for U.S. domestic propaganda efforts.

    The amendment — proposed by Mac Thornberry (R-Texas) and Adam Smith (D-Wash.) and passed in the House would effectively nullify the Smith-Mundt Act of 1948, which explicitly forbids information and psychological operations aimed at influencing U.S. public opinion.

  3. MEANING: There’ll be more false flag gun attacks.

  4. Mass Media was created by Satan’s minions to LIE. I don’t watch Mass Media. My Family follow me. Mass Media is criminal and satanic.
