The news sources with the greatest share of their audience who perform in the lowest-scoring category on the Misinformation Susceptibility Test

To determine media consumption, respondents were asked, "Which of these have you personally used as a source for news in the last month? Select all that apply" and shown 56 news sources to choose from.

Note: YouGov showed U.S. adult citizens a randomized set of 20 headlines — 10 of which were real headlines and 10 of which were fake — and asked people to say whether they believed each headline was real or fake. This survey design comes from the Misinformation Susceptibility Test (https://doi.org/10.3758/s13428-023-02124-2)
