KFF Health Misinformation Tracking Poll Pilot

In relation to misinformation, most Americans are situated in a “malleable middle” holding some but not absolute levels of belief in inaccurate information. Misinformation exposures can lead to increased confusion and even “decision paralysis” around individual health decisions. Increased exposure to some media sources such as, for example, One American News Network (OANN) and Newsmax correlated with greater believe in misinformation topics.
