Americans are now more likely to say they trust information from news organizations and social media sites than they were last year, according to a new Pew Research Center survey. These changes are largely driven by an increase in trust among Republicans, which has coincided with President Donald Trump’s return to the White House.
Around half of Republicans and Republican-leaning independents (53%) now say they have at least some trust in the information they get from national news organizations — a 13 percentage point increase from September 2024, when 40% of Republicans said the same. Between 2016 and 2024, trust among Republicans in the information they get from the national news media had declined overall.
