Public's respect for doctors rises, while trust for journalists plummets

Canadians love their doctors. But journalists? Not so much. That's according to the results of a new Angust Reid survey, released yesterday. Since 1994, the public's respect for physicians has grown from 91% to 94%. Over the same period of time, respect for journalists (that's me!) dropped from 73% to a meagre 49%. Ouch. I have a theory, though: if the survey had taken into account specialization within those professions, I'm confident that we medical journalists would come out on top compared to other beat reporters.
