Local newspapers more trusted than social media sites, research shows
Local newspapers are the most trusted source for local news and information, and more than three times more trusted than social media sites, according to a new report released today from YouGov.
The study revealed that almost three quarters (74 per cent) of people said that local press in print and digital is their most trusted source for local news and information, and despite the rise and dominance of social media, only 22 per cent said they trust the local news read on sites like Facebook and LinkedIn.
