Perhaps more informative still would be to plot that data against per capita funding for public broadcasters.

Might be quite interesting. My most trusted media source is the government funded one, as opposed to the billionaire owned or click bait ones. If there was no government funded media then I'd trust the media less. But I can imagine in many countries, a high spend on public media is probably indicative of an untrustworthy media.

37% seems like the latest for NZ.

After the search I found:

the most meaningful measure comes in the annual report on trust in the news produced by the AUT's Centre for Journalism, Media and Democracy (JMAD).

This RNZ story covers it (if we can even trust them), which says:

"In 2026, New Zealanders' trust in news in general improved significantly, with 37 percent of New Zealanders trusting the news, compared to 32 percent in 2025," said the 2026 report.

I should really look at the community title before I try and find us.

Well, I trust the police and the government.

Suck down corporate sentiment.

Quite interesting that the US is so low down the list. Having said that, I wouldn't trust their news either.
