freeholder, I typed the words “take a poll” not “the polls show”. This is the latest poll I could find without spending an inordinate amount of time to achieve the same result. It’s about 3 or 4 years old, obviously.
The truth is, these types of polls don’t get done very often simply because most of these journalists want people to believe that they are independent, unaffected relayers of news content. If I want commentary with my news, I’ll watch Olberman or listen to Limbaugh or those types. I’d like to be able to find news content uncontaminated by the biases (liberal or conservative) of the mostly pretty faces with vacuous sound byte takes on issues that require more thought than whether one is “team edward or team jacob” for whatever that’s worth.
