A new poll shows that two-thirds of both Republican and Democrats think coronavirus misinformation is a major issue. What varies is who each group thinks is to blame for the falsehoods.
CCP (Chinese Communist Party) virus misinformation is a major problem says 82 percent of Democrats and 73 percent of Republicans. Democrats were much more likely to identify the Trump administration as a major source of misinformation (85 percent) than Republicans (4 percent). Meanwhile, 75 percent of Republicans identified mainstream news organizations as the main source of false or misleading coronavirus information, compared to just 2 percent of Democrats.
