Axios writer Felix Salmon reports that trust in the drive by media has reached a low point in America. It's so low that he says it's at a crisis state now. He reports that, for the first time ever, fewer than half of all Americans trust the traditional media, meaning the drive buys. Almost six Americans believe that most traditional news outlets are more concerned with an ideology or a political
position than they are reporting the news. Almost the same percentage think that the drive by media journalists are willing to tell gross exaggerations and to report things they know are false e Fake news in typical Axios format. The reporter then has to tell his millennial readers why it matters.

they're smart. They know the drive bys and the deep state government are run by dishonest, corrupt, vicious leftists, and for the last four years they've seen those liberals totally deranged with hatred for Trump and everyone who supports him. That's really why it matters, and they don't even have the slightest idea
