Fox News poll backfiring - extending it not helping

Post by Ronja » Wed Oct 12, 2011 11:48 am

The poll is still open, BTW: http://www.foxnews.com/opinion/2011/10/ ... s-economy/

The Daily Kos (among others) is reporting something that Fox News has found out that Fox News maybe would prefer not to be reported:
Fox News conducted a poll on how the public views the #OWS protests; however, the results are not likely to be a lead story on Fox anytime soon.

The question asked was ,
“Do Occupy Wall Street protest represent your views on the economy?”

[183,148 total responses]
- Maybe. I am not even sure what they want----- [2.8% 4694 votes]
- No. They have no idea how jobs are created or how a free enterprise system works. -----[28.63% 52025 votes}
- Yes. These folks are right about corporate greed and what's happening to the little guy. ----[67.98% 123509 votes]
- Other (post comment) ---- [.8% 1460 votes ]

67.98% you say..... 67.98%.....oops!

Roger, we have to bury that nasty little nugget of information because its...uh...unbalanced.

"The internet is made of people. People matter. This includes you. Stop trying to sell everything about yourself to everyone. Don’t just hammer away and repeat and talk at people—talk TO people. It’s organic. Make stuff for the internet that matters to you, even if it seems stupid. Do it because it’s good and feels important. Put up more cat pictures. Make more songs. Show your doodles. Give things away and take things that are free." - Maureen J
