FReep this poll: BellSouth.net ISP asking "Who would you like to be BellSouth's news provider?"
BellSouth.net ^

Posted on 08/01/2003 10:52:45 AM PDT by BlueOneGolf

Attention all FReepers who use BellSouth.net as their ISP: They are doing surveys to improve the layout of their Home Page. Among the polls is this one: "Who would you like to see be BellSouth's news content provider?". So far FOX News is leading the way 40% to CNN's 29% but we could use some FReeper help to build a more commanding lead. The current news content provider is ABC and it would be great if we could help get that changed. If you're not a BellSouth.net subscriber perhaps you may be able to vote as well. Try it and see. Thanks FReepers.


TOPICS: Your Opinion/Questions
KEYWORDS: bellsouth; foxnews; freep; freeppolls; freepthispoll; homepage; isp; news
FReepers using BellSouth.net let's get to it!

If these numbers suddenly turn around and they end up with CNN or CBS on top, we'll finally have conclusive proof that the DUh crowd is using cheap voting scripts to anti-freep polls far more than we ever did. Then maybe people around here will wake up and realize that as usual, the RATS have taken the fight way beyond the boundaries of fair game.

Fox 50% at 12:88 EDT; voted 5 times and they didn't increase the numbers. They either cut the poll off or have already made up their minds. If they disregard and go with ABC I will change providers.

"what type of internet application do you like best?" Should people who answer "downloading music" put on their tinfoil hats considering recent action with music companies and Verizon?
