Funnily, the first person who did that is Issac who has seemed a right wing type to me. snoopcester Send a noteboard - 28/01/2010 12:19:05 PM
"that poll sucks and must be invalid because it isn't what I believe"


though that as a response would be a silly one - the overall result of the poll seems to reflect, roughly, viewing figures. It does make a whole lot of sense that most people watch the news channel they believe is most truthful.
Now how actually truthful the different channels are is a different matter and polling the public is not going to tell people that.
