Do people respect nurses or TV reporters more?

The Spritzler Report was rated as more trustworthy than grade school teachers but less respected that nurses? I'm shocked! Where do nurses get off!

The Data: Nurses consistently earn the highest ethics rating of various professions in the U.S. This year, 76% of Americans rate nurses' honesty and ethical standards as “very high” or “high,” while most of the rest consider them to be “average” rather than low.

Other Professions: Other high-ranking professions include grade school teachers, military officers, pharmacists and medical doctors, all lauded for high ethics by majorities of Americans. The least well-respected, with majorities rating them as having “low” or “very low” standards, are lobbyists, members of Congress and TV reporters.
