The Eurobarometer survey’s data shows that respondents were more likely to trust traditional news sources, such as radio, television, and printed newspapers and news magazines, than they were to trust online sources. Also, the respondents were more likely to report that they didn't know how much they trusted online sources. European Union refers to EU28.
