In fact, CNN scored just slightly ahead of MSNBC (15%) - likely meaning that it wasn't able to position itself as the "moderate" news channel between Fox on the Right and MSNBC on the left.
The best news is that the internet is the most trusted news medium over all. I take this as a good thing: though more susceptible to hoaxes, stories on the web are also easier to verify immediately. In other words, if you don't trust mass media (and, according to the poll, most Americans don't) the internet is a great way to take personal responsibility for staying up to date.
