On several shows including Unreliable Sources, they have people on talking about the Newsweak Poll and it's impact. They just accept the poll as fact. There is no underlying analysis of the poll itself. Even when the original polls came out showing W with a 11 point lead, we all thought they were garbage.
A show like Unreliable Resources would be better if they analyzed the poll itself instead of having a bunch of talking heads like Gergen (puke alert)discussing the impact of polls. If course, the show is on CNN so they are just pushing the Kerry agenda anyway.
The up side is that the poll isn't representative of fact. So now the media has to advance a fradulent poll to attempt to sway the American public that their opinions should reflect a huge swing for Kerry, as NewsWeek showed. Their trouble is going to be that we have the 'net and talk radio to compensate. I do not include FOX because they haven't exactly shown sense in this matter.
They'll also have the tough job of convincing the public they should swing their votes to Kerry, when what Kerry said frightened anyone listening.
Now kerry is coming out with a poll saying he won a stylistic debate, he doesn't use the "s" word but we know what they all mean. This coming week is going to be fun for us.
