I took the results a bit differently.

First, I ignored the dislike slices. Who's watching sources they distrust? Nobody, so that's personal bias, IMO.

Now, look at the Trust slices. Other than FoxNews, no news source really breaks 25% for the Repubs. They just don't seem to follow any source. If they did, they'd trust someone. So half watch FoxNews, and only a quarter watch anything else.

For the lefties, half the sources have 30-60% trust. That is a lot more sources getting regular eyes and ears on them. Something like NPR getting less high reviews is likely just less listeners as it's a bit "drier" news and a bit "both sidesey" due to it being public media. The dislike for it is only 3%, tied for the lowest dislike. Counterpoint is Newsmax for the left. Really low like and dislike because why would a liberal ever watch that?
