Abstract

The development of science and technology has promoted the diversification of media forms, and the emergence of new media has enriched people’s access to information. At the same time, this situation has also led to the rapid spread of some negative news and gradually dispelled people’s political trust. In order to explore the specific relationship between media use and government trust, it is necessary to conduct more in-depth research. Based on the CGSS2010 survey data, this paper focuses on the influence of media use on political trust and explores the relationship between media use and government trust in detail by using regression analysis, and factor analysis. It is found that the use of traditional media has a positive and significant impact on political trust, while the use of new media has just the opposite effect on it in general.
