Do U.S. news media outlets have a branding problem?

It used to be that news outlets in the U.S. were viewed as fair, objective, politically-neutral and fact-based. Do they now have a branding problem?

Check out the article at:

.

It seems that news media outlets have a branding problem. Their core values are perceived to be forgotten and it seems to me that yes, I trust news much less than I used to and many "news" articles are written and reported from an agenda-driven angle.

What do they need to do to fix their brands? Can they fix their brands at all?
