I thought I was safe watching Fox, but had to turn them off right away! I DON"T believe that the missing explosive story did anything to anybody however. Pure propaganda.

I don't understand Fox with that one. We need a "Fair and Balanced" network.
That exit poll data that Chris Wallace was quoting was a joke. He was giving statistics on how people voted based on their "issue". He never said how many of the total were spread amongs the various "issues" so to say that the missing explosive story was going the way he quoted (and all the other one issue voter issues) in itself is very misleading.
If you have 3 voters that all said the missing explosive story was their deciding factor and 2 out of 3 voted for Kerry because of it then the percentages would be what he quoted. On the other hand, the ones whose "issue" was terrorism, it went overwhelmingly for Bush so, again, let's say that there were 100 votes who had that as their "issue", that would throw the other explosive issue out of the water. Without knowing the internals on all those "issues" the numbers he was spouting is meaningless as to how it will actually effect the total overall vote.
