[cma-l] Trust in the media

[Editor, Airflash Magazine]

Dear All,

A YouGov poll published last Friday shows that nearly half of the UK  
population "do not trust [television] very much to tell the truth".  
As the subject of trust dominated the Edinburgh international  
television festival this weekend, I thought it would be good to find  
out if any of the recent television scandals had had any rippling  
effect in the community media sector? Do your audience trust you more  
or less to tell the truth?
