"Be more trustworthy" isn't a particularly simple notion. What could CNN or Fox do to do that?

Stopping to treat politics like entertainment and actively spreading false facts would be a good start, IMHO. Not that I expect any of that so. Same goes for other countries, maybe a tad less extreme.
I agree with you on the entertainment aspect.

What's an example of a false fact that's been reported? All the major news players are really careful on this front. They'll report accurately that someone said something that was false, for example.
