Clearly not winning any trust awards with consumers, The Huffington Post is solidly behind every other news organization tracked by ACSI. It would seem that HuffPo’s rabid “news aggregation” (discussed in this Forbes post by Lewis DVorkin) isn’t cutting it with consumers looking for quality context and elaboration–as opposed to cut-and-paste reporting.
Its not surprising given the fact that many Republicans typically only get their news from Fox. Most people, however, crave a little more diversity.
Quote:
Four-in-ten Republicans (40%) now say they regularly watch Fox News, up from 36% two years ago and just 18% a decade ago. Just 12% of Republicans regularly watch CNN, and just 6% regularly watch MSNBC.
As recently as 2002, Republicans were as likely to watch CNN (28%) as Fox News (25%). The share of Democrats who regularly watch CNN or Fox News has fallen from 2008.
Considering that Huffington Post is just a website and not a TV network or major newspaper, this news isn't exactly surprising. Seems bizarre that they even included it in the list.

FOX is where the delusional go to pretend as if Bush never happened, where the racists and the bigots go to justify their continued lunacy. I can't think of any other news source that is WORSE.
