Poll question: What source would you choose for credibility for news and reporting.
As the media continues to lose credibility, it becomes more important to discern what is and is not believable in reporting. Several sources are available. Which is your choice for the truth?

1. There are actually several sources listed that I go to at least occasionaly . . .
But Maddow is the sharpest and the most entertaining. Should credible news be "entertaining?" Well, maybe.

2. no source is completely credible, & even generally non-credible ones

5. Given the choices ... Rachel, no question.
I try to see what is being reported in an array of venues so I can compare, but if I can have only one of those listed ... easy, Rachel.
