Score -2

The statement engages in public discourse by discussing public trust in media, referencing Gallup data to highlight a decline in trust among Democrats. It addresses broader issues of media credibility and political influence.

  1. Principle 1:
    I will strive to do no harm with my words and actions.
    The statement does not directly harm but could contribute to polarization by emphasizing partisan differences. [-1]
  2. Principle 3:
    I will use my words and actions to promote understanding, empathy, and compassion.
    It lacks an empathetic tone and does not promote understanding, focusing instead on partisan decline. [-1]
  3. Principle 4:
    I will engage in constructive criticism and dialogue with those in disagreement and will not engage in personal attacks or ad hominem arguments.
    The statement engages in dialogue but could be seen as dismissive of opposing views, particularly in the context of the broader conversation.
