 A media study released in 2020 showed that trust in SVT programming polarised the audience.80-90% of viewers who supported liberal or left-leaning parties Green Party, Swedish Social Democratic Party, Liberals, Left Party and Centre Party had high trust in SVT whereas fewer viewers who supported conservative-leaning parties Christian Democrats (60%), Moderate Party (54%) and Sweden Democrats (30%) had high trust in SVT.This meant that SVT was an issue that polarised the audience more than US president Donald Trump.
