This study was paid for by the powers behind thew "Main-Stream-Media"
what a bunch of horse shit
ONE QUESTION????????? Who are the Sheep then??? The Newspapers or the Radio Listeners?
Who got to define "extreme views" for this silly study?
First of all Rush is not a journalist. He is a commentator. He doesn't editorialize the news like the MSM does. There is a difference between what opinions he has about a particular subject and what the NYSlime has to say about the same story. Talk radio is exploding and paper circulations are down. There is a reason to all this. It's quite simple actually. People are not buying what the MSM is selling. The average Joe looks around and come to the conclusion that his/her world isn't representative in the newsrooms of america. Before the MSM is liberal, it is elitist and their presumption and contempt for the average Joe is beyond the pale. I love the 1000 channel unevise it makes them more amd more irrelevant.
Good riddance
People who listen to the Radio usually MULTI-TASK, which means they can listen and DO something at the same time.....Newspaper readers on the other hand....can only READ what's in front of them, one word at a time, as written by the LIBERAL MAINSTREAM PRESS......HOW'S That for a CONCLUSION???? ANYTHING the PEW proposes....needs a SMELL test.....PEUWWWWWW.
I do LOVE that chart, however.......looks like the NEWSIES really ARE in trouble!!!! BBAAAAAAAAAAAWWWWWWWWAHHHHHHHHHHHHH
Almost everyone I know who listens to radio does it either on the way to work in their car, or sometimes at work.
Basic difference is that radio listeners are much more likely to have a job than anyone else.
Newspapers are limited to word length. Whereby the same article/written read over a 2-3 minute period? About 1/3 of what can be communicated by spoken word. Like, duh.. It took Pew Research to turn this into a propoganda piece.
Pew Research Center is a bunch of commie rats.
That's because all they can do is look at the pretty pictures. The smart consumers have switched to radio.
Horrors ! They forgot the other part of the survey - you know, the questions that point out that watching too much Today Show and ABC/NBC/CBS evening news and other MSM sources makes you a more extreme liberal...
"Mugur Geana used data from a telephone survey administered nationally to 2,528 adults in the United States."
A little over 2500 people are surveyed, and this is the result? There may be a lot of people who have strong opinions who don't write to editors or call radio stations because of the hassle. Who knows?
TRANSLATION: For a more equitable view of the world, newspaper researchers invite you to turn off Rancid Rush Radio and turn on to Groovy Gray Lady Grape Kool-Aid.
*snort*
*chuckle*
*GUFFAW!!!!*
*ROTFLMAO!!!!!!!!!!!!*
Radio Listeners Have Most Extreme Political Views, Newspaper Readers Least.
Radio Listeners Are Better Informed, Newspaper Readers Least Informed
Can anyone find any reference to Rush in the Pew survey? I can't so I'm not sure where they came up with their attributing any view to Rush. Did I miss something?
Pew. The same folks who are funded in part by the Tides Foundation. 'Nuff said.
