FOX NEWS .. Did Anyone Hear This? (A Sorta Vanity)
Posted on 09/25/2010 4:38:31 PM PDT by plinyelder
Between 6 and 7pm (est) tonight, Fox News had on Doug Schoen, the Democratic pollster and some other A$$Hat whom I believe was an author.
The discussion was about the reliability and slant of polls.
What REALLY Pi$$ed me off is .. The author dude said a Good Example of misleading numbers was .. Ta Da .. Glenn Beck and his claiming of 500,000 people at the Beck rally.
This guy CLAIMS that there was REALLY only about 90,000 people in attendance.
Here's the KICKER.
The guy CLAIMS that Farakan's Million Man March was also misleading Because .. There was ONLY about 500,000 at That Rally and not a million!
Maybe I'm not being very clear here and I'm just rambling 'But' do any of you see Why I might be .. Just a little PI$$ED?

I yelled at the tv. I wrote down the name of the guy, and I’m sending it all to Beck. It was insane.

Was asshat a pollster? If he was, he just ruined any credibility he had.

We attended the 828 rally and at least 500K were there. The Metro system was overwhelmed.
BTW, it was great!

I saw that segment on Fox, too........I just think about a crowd at a football or baseball game.....and Beck’s rally had WAY more than a large stadium crowd.......
I think he must have had at LEAST a few hundred thousand people there.....

Charles Seif, professor at IEU, and author of the new book, Proofiness.
To: ryan71
Yep. In fact, I believe that pic of the Beck crowd was taken from atop the Washington Monument.
If Farky had 500k, Beck had 600-650k

If the crowd was not in the hundreds of thousands, the libbies would not still be talking about the rally. Your reaction is what they want, just laugh at them and tell yourself WE WON.
To: doesnt suffer fools gladly
and author of the new book, Proofiness.You sure it isn't "Poofiness"?
