As of 2017, right-wing American news website Breitbart was rated as not at all credible by 18 percent of respondents from a survey of over two thousand U.S. adults. Additionally, over half of respondents had either never heard of the publication or had no opinion about Breitbart’s credibility.
The current political climate in the U.S. has given rise to increasingly divisive opinions regarding the truthfulness, objectivity, and credibility of many American news sources. While both sides of the isle tend to agree that social media is the most common source of fake news and misinformation, they differ greatly in terms of their opinions of sources like Fox News and MSNBC.
