A new national survey finds that a growing number of Americans, across party lines, believe media bias is not only real but getting worse—with nearly half of likely voters saying the problem has intensified in recent years.

The latest Rasmussen Reports survey, released this week, found that 49% of likely voters believe news media bias is getting worse, compared to just 11% who think it’s improving. The findings reflect persistent skepticism among voters toward media institutions, which many say have increasingly favored Democratic perspectives.

In a key question from the survey, likely voters were asked if they agreed with the statement, “No matter how much you hate the media, it’s not enough.” Forty-four percent agreed, compared to 29% who disagreed.

The results show that distrust of the press is not limited to one age group or political affiliation. Respondents included younger voters, older Americans, Hispanics, Republicans, independents, and Democrats, many of whom cited a consistent pro-Democratic tilt in coverage across major news outlets.

Keep Acting Local

Politicians you elect in your city, county, and state usually have a greater impact on your daily life than anyone in the federal government. During “off-years,” these local races send ripple effects throughout American communities. It is up to you to shape them.

It seems like every time we at Million Voices speak to lawmakers and their teams, they all tell us the same thing: if just 10 people in their district write letters about issues that matter to them, elected officials know they have a serious crisis on their hands. A thousand people could message that same lawmaker via email or social media, and it would mean nothing. But hand-written, or even printed and signed letters, will make your politicians take action (if they really care about your vote, that is).

Contacting your representatives should be easy, but there are myriad ways they can ignore your calls to action. That’s where we come in. (READ MORE: John Graves Tells Florida’s Voice How MV Engaged Millions Of Voters For Major Election)
