I have to agree with Fret about the methodology. Maybe a better way of asking would have been:

Who are you more inclined to believe?
1> Fox News
2> The White House
3> Neither / Other
4> Don't Care

Also, if you're going to put a link up for one side, you should put in a link for the other side too.

The way the question was phrased, it made it too black and white. It reminded me of the Bush administration's 'Either you're for us or against us', as if there were no grey areas in-between. And when it comes to politics and religion, there is definitely lots of grey area. And just about any other colour you can think of. Smile

No Worries... There are polling 'experts' out there that muck things up, though sometimes on purpose. It definitely seems to be an art, as well as a science. Not to mention that even if the poll was perfect, it can't be very scientific with such a small number of users.

It is, however... fun. Smile

So lets see... Avian supports precisely the same point I was trying to make with you but (without knowing if if she read the article either) you agree with her?

I know, I know I suppose it's all in how you deliver the news.

It's just I can't help myself when you post something. You are just way too easy and too much fun. Smile

Yet you did anyway. See what I mean? btw, love the Big Red Font.

No Fret, you are wrong I didn't misinterpret I was simply making fun of you! You misinterpreted my response.

I was just feeding a troll. What are you trying to do, take over TJ's position of top troll on the Rio?

He is much better at it than you. You just make me laugh.

Glad you liked my typography.

I can spar with you all day but I have better things to do.

AT last someone out of the wood works. Wonder who it might be?

Not hard to figure out who loves FOX. I WONDER IF I SHOULD NAME NAMES?

Might be that they are ashamed to admit that they get most of there news from FOX.

For myself I am very fair and balanced; I have FOX on 60% of the time. OR MORE
So it’s easy to know where my adversaries get there information from.

INTERESTING NEWS

"Rush Drags Right-Wing Radio Over the Cliff in Massive Sponsor Exodus
Ruh-ro!

Ninety-eight major advertisers—including Ford and Geico—will no longer air spots on Premiere Networks’ ‘offensive’ programs. Insiders say the loss will rock right-wing talk radio.
According to John Avlon of The Daily Beast, the entire clown car of rabid rightwing radio firebreathers getting dragged down by Rush Limbaugh goes well beyond His Lumpiness ...
Premiere Networks, which distributes Limbaugh as well as a host of other right-wing talkers, sent an email out to its affiliates early Friday listing 98 large corporations that have requested their ads appear only on “programs free of content that you know are deemed to be offensive or controversial (for example, Mark Levin, Rush Limbaugh, Tom Leykis, Michael Savage, Glenn Beck, Sean Hannity)."”

Yep... perfect! This is the free market place at work.

What,? say the conservatives? No, No, No.. 'this is a plot by the left to silence the rights voices', the conservatives are screaming. Well, hardly... I can guarantee that if advertisers were pulling out of liberal talk show hosts in droves, the right would be espousing it a 'Free Market' decision.

So, which is it? Plot or Free Market? Obviously, Free Market. Companies/Corporations are not stupid, and know that hate radio is a losing proposition in the long run.

This is some funny stuff. You guys spend all your time spewing bovine excrement about what an evil creature the free market is without your enlightened liberal regulatory stranglehold, and now you are lauding it as the best thing since sliced bread.

HAHAHAHAHAHA! Funny stuff.

Myself and most of the people that post here support free enterprise, free markets and capitalism. But at the sametime believe in fairness and that the 1% pay there fair shair in TAXES. Having had my own
bussiness I know for a fact all the loop holes I benefited from. A good CPA helps a lot. The game is rigged by the rich in there favor big time. Tax laws R written by law makers funded by who? The 1% Budman when will you start understanding that?
