A new poll suggests that half of Canadians believe the media is purposefully misleading the public to support their own agenda.
The study released by consultancy firm Edelman found that 49% of Canadians believe journalists are “purposely trying to mislead people by saying things they know are false or gross exaggerations.”
“Not one information source – traditional media (55%), search engines (47%), owned (32%) or social media (22%) – is trusted in Canada and the latter three are distrusted. All four information sources have witnessed a decline in trust compared to last year,” Edelman wrote.
A total of 52% surveyed also believe most news outlets are more concerned promoting their own ideology than telling the truth.

Archeologists in Egypt have found a so-called “lost golden city” under the sand near Luxor, some 3,000 years after it was built for King Tutankhamun‘s grandfather.
Top Egyptologist Zahi Hawass revealed the startling discovery on Thursday, in what experts say is the most significant find since the tomb of King Tutankhamun was unearthed in 1922.
Ladies and gentlemen, Prince Philip.
