Fox News is one of the most popular news media networks that you can find out there in the world. A lot of people trust the news channel and the content broadcasted by them. You might also be watching live Fox news on a daily basis. As you trust the content that you can see, you believe the content you see as well. But now we have come to a point where you need to think twice before you watch Fox news again. That’s because the news channel network recently broadcasted that it is the least trusted news network out there in the world.

This news was broadcasted during the Media Buzz segment of the television. As soon as this was broadcasted, Howard Kurtz, who was the host of the segment asked to take it down. However, the same graphic was later broadcasted again. This left all people who work for Fox News baffled. It was not something that they were supposed to broadcast. In this graphic, it was clearly shown that Fox News is the least trusted news media network. Their news channel was compared along with MSNBC and CNN, which are two other prominent news channels in the world. CNN scored a trust score of 48%, whereas MSNBC scored a trust score of 45%. Unfortunately, Fox News could only get a trust score of 30%. Due to this reason, the channel was not supposed to display it at all.

Kurtz later published about this scenario on his social media accounts as well. He tried to justify the figures that were shown on television. In fact, he highlighted the fact that President Donald Trump is more trustworthy than MSNBC and CNN. Moreover, he mentioned that people can trust cable news operations than the independent officeholders. The cable news networks tend to provide unbiased content to the people as much as possible. Due to the infrastructure, they have to provide such information. But there is a high possibility for independent news channels to be biased. In fact, most of them are biased to political parties. Kurtz wanted to highlight this fact to all people who are concerned about the fact that was mistakenly broadcasted.

We are not too sure about the accuracy of these figures. Those may be true stats because Fox News wouldn’t have displayed something even if they came up with it. Hence, we can understand that Fox News has gathered honest information and they didn’t do any alternations to the information they have. They must have taken the decision not to broadcast the content. Unfortunately, a simple mistake made them go wrong. Due to this reason, it was not possible for them to regain the lost reputation. However, the host Kurtz has been trying hard to correct the mistake. We can expect people to forget what happened in some time, especially if Fox News keeps on providing trustable content.
