Global trust in public service news media 2018-2022
A study examining perspectives on news consumption found that whilst trust in public service media was generally high, trust dropped in almost all markets between 2018 and 2022. The biggest drop could be seen in the United Kingdom, where the share of respondents who trusted the BBC dropped by 20 percent, from 75 percent to 55 percent. ABC in Australia and CBC in Canada also saw a substantial decrease in the percentage of trusting news consumers, whereas trust in Swedish public news brands SVT and SR grew in the same time period.
