Millennials have been losing their faith in religious organizations and the news media over the past five years. Although they tend to be more optimistic about American institutions than previous generations, 18-to-34-year-olds’ ratings on churches has dropped from 73% in 2010 to 55%. They’ve also become almost as critical of news media as older consumers, with only 27% now saying the institution has a positive impact on society. (PewResearchCenter)
