The Times, The Telegraph and the BBC have suffered the biggest collapses in trust among UK news media over the past five years. A Telegraph spokesperson said the newspaper had "a record number of subscribers" who "value our quality, trusted and award-winning journalism". The Guardian now ranks above The Times, on 48% trust compared to 61% in 2018. None of the news brands included in the analysis have seen an increase in trust since 2018, as overall trust in journalism in the UK fell to a record low of 34%. Alongside BBC News, ITV News saw trust in its output drop by 17 percentage points since 2018 and Channel 4 News by 16 percentage points.
