Do Europeans really trust the European media or are they doubtful of it ?

[Zahavah]

I've noticed bias in the media many times in USA , Europe and other places ... Americans often distrust their own media on occasion ... do Europeans distrust it too ?

I can't speak for the whole of Europe, only here in the UK. Broadcast media tends to be politically neutral, but there is open bias in printed media (generally in favour of the Tories).

Television and radio is largely trusted and respected as unbiased. The BBC is often accused of bias, though interestingly all parts of the political spectrum accuse the BBC of bias against them.
