A majority of Americans, 56 percent, say the news industry is headed in the wrong direction while 42 percent say it’s heading in the right direction, according to a new report by the Media Insight Project, a joint initiative of the American Press Institute and The Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research.
