Liberal Media Viewers Misinformed About US Crime: Rasmussen Poll

Liberal media viewers are misinformed about crime in the U.S., a new survey found.

Fewer than 50 unarmed black suspects were killed by police last year, and more people were killed with knives than with assault weapons. Viewers of MSNBC and CNN are far more likely than Fox News viewers to get those facts wrong.

Half of likely U.S. voters who said CNN or MSNBC was their favorite cable news outlet believe more than 100 unarmed African Americans were fatally shot by police in 2020, according to a new Heartland Institute and Rasmussen Reports survey.

So, according to the Liberal Media, the Cops are entitled to rub out more than 50 blacks to make that Liberal Media truthful.

OK.

Got to keep them black dems juiced up and pissed off.....

[monkeyshine]

Fewer than 50?
What’s the actual number? One? Forty-nine?

[cdcdawg]

They are misinformed about quite a lot. “Liberal media viewers” could mean the media or the viewers or both are liberal. Either way, they won’t know even the basics about important issues.

By April, there were 3. Do the math.

Or how about what's the number of 'em that were killed that did not Run, Resist or verbally threaten?

Or maybe how many that did not Run, Resist or verbally threaten, and were Factually Innocent.

I can think of only one, ... Philando Castile.

The latest year’s data I can find is 2019.

That full year showed 19.

BTW - some recent polls i saw show 40% of black folk believe it’s above 1000 ... 10% believe around 4-5000.

Liberal Media viewers believe that Asians are being attacked by White supremacists exclusively.

[coloradan]

It’s not the “liberal media”, it’s the gaslight media - and apparently it’s doing its job perfectly well.

[StAnDeliver]

The thing is, the people they are gaslighting enjoy being gaslighted.

Most of the Fourth Estate has become the Farce Estate.

Let the leftists walk in central park after dark. People think they’re crazy...

[Eagles6]

I think it was 22.

You know, like Michael Brow and Trayvon Martin were unarmed.

[Beowulf9]

Not ‘mis’ informed.

[Lurkina.n.Learnin]

Mal-informed.

[Yardstick]

They should enlarge on this idea and poll on more topics where liberals are grossly misinformed. It would be very revealing.

[Migraine]

What’s the actual number? One? Forty-nine?

What's 42, more or less? Anyway, who's counting?
