Not just that but Trump's whole MO regarding the media is making his supporters believe they are untrustworthy. Which sucks because I don't believe there's any major news outlet out there that isn't biased to some degree, so he's partially right. But when any major negative story comes out, very few of his followers believe it because they've been taught the media has it out for him.

This is a separate tangent from the Russia thing because now he's deflecting blame for the Russia scandal by saying the CIA is untrustworthy. Hell the fact that the majority of the intelligence community agrees that Russia is behind it doesn't matter to him, because he doesn't trust the intelligence community, as evidenced by the fact that he ignores his daily briefings.
