"Tabloid readers, says the survey, are less likely than others to seek out other sources of news and information about politics. Only 4% of them go to a political website in a typical week. The upshot is a civic Catch-22 in which tabloid readers get large amounts of their political information from newspapers which they overwhelmingly believe are unfair and which neither they nor anyone else trusts in any significant numbers to tell the truth. It is often said that a society gets the press it deserves, but it is also true that the press gets the society it deserves."
