Yikes!

Fox, BBC, Al Jazeera most trusted: poll - Yahoo! News: "Asked to name the news source they most trusted, without any prompting, 59 percent of Egyptians said Al Jazeera, 52 percent of Brazilians said Rede Globo, 32 percent of Britons said the BBC, 22 percent of Germans said ARD and 11 percent of Americans said Fox News, each leading their respective nations."
The poll was based on "10,000 adults in 10 countries," a rather vague proposition. Nonetheless of all respondents 61 percent trusted "media" while 52 percent trusted their governments. The most trusted news brands globally were BBC and CNN.

"The jury is still out on blogs," quoth some guy. Wherever it is, may it long remain.
