CNN Poll Finds Only 2% of People Get Their News From CNN
Ouch.

CNN ran a poll and I couldn’t even get past the first few pages to get to the actual poll questions because the first background breakdown was too funny.

CNN asked “is there a specific person or source you trust to tell you about what’s happening in politics?”

Only 45% answered ‘Yes’. 5% listed FOX News, only 2% listed CNN (in a CNN News poll), 1% answered MSNBC, ABC and NBC News got 1% each. So did the New York Times.

Clearly few have any loyalty to any particular outlet.

None of the personalities, from Candace Owens to Tucker Carlson placed. Joe Rogan and Heather Cox Richardson (if you don’t know who she is, it’s because you’re not a liberal) both got 1%.

2% has to be an embellished figure. :headbang:

  • The problem with everything is they try and make it better without realizing the old way is fine.

  • I was a "conspiracy theorist". Now I'm just right.

Go figure. **nononono*

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

Well, remember: that number includes people stuck waiting for their flights in airports...
"If all men are created equal, that is final. If they are endowed with inalienable rights, that is final. If governments derive their just powers from the consent of the governed, that is final. No advance, no progress can be made beyond these propositions. If anyone wishes to deny their truth or their soundness, the only direction in which he can proceed historically is not forward, but backward toward the time when there was no equality, no rights of the individual, no rule of the people."    -Calvin Coolidge
