- The claimed figure of 'two thirds' (approximately 67%) is substantially higher than the actual Eurobarometer data showing 49% trust in public TV and radio stations.

- The claim does not specify the source, time period, or specific survey. The most recent Eurobarometer data available before January 2026 shows trust in public TV and radio at 49%, significantly lower than the claimed two thirds. The claim may be conflating 'use of traditional media' with 'trust in public service media' - a Eurobarometer Social Media Survey 2025 mentions two-thirds of respondents rely on TV, radio and newspapers, but this refers to usage patterns, not trust levels.
