A French journalist created a stir on Twitter after launching an open poll which asks if people think the media lies. At least 91 percent of the respondents said ‘yes,’ adding that the media hides information, and even comparing journalism to prostitution.

The poll … asked one simple question: “Does the media lie to you? Vote.” Almost 8,000 people answered. …

“Media are partisan and distribute biased information,” one person wrote …

People accused the media of manipulating the opinions of the public and spinning the news.

“The media no longer have an information role but [a role of] opinion makers,” added one more person. …

“Journalist at the scene is like a prostitute at her place of work,” one wrote.

Yep, everyone knows. (Though the PC crew still deny it.)
