Iraq War; Fox News Lies ?

<< < (2/2)

JDavid:
Fox News just showed one of their closed polls on TV.  It turns out that this poll with the 71% approval for this war was conducted at http://www.foxnews.com/polls .  I did not know about this poll.  Only their viewers who watch the channel often knew about it.  Most of their constant viewers would approve of the war.  So, 29% against it, who are Fox News viewers, seems to indicate a very strong public resistance to the war overall when you take that into account and add the rest of the non-Fox News world on top of it.

Maybe we should all be checking these polls and voting in them even if we don't watch Fox News for more than 5 mins a day.  I know I'll be doing it.

Well, here's a good place to find Faux viewers:

There are war and politics discussions going on in News Of The Day, Random Madness, The Terrorism War and probably some other forums. Note especially JamesZappa. There has been some speculation that he might be a relative of Stephen A. Zappala, our DA. I haven't been able to confirm any relation between Stephen and, Straight cofounder, Joseph Zappala. But here's some data gathered by Wes showing close business ties between Zappala and Roy Spear, owner of Home Shopping Network and another Straight board member. That's the same Spears family for which a township or two and a chain of gas/convenience stores in this area are names.

A local warned me not to piss him off with public questions like that as they're among the most powerful families in this area. But I'm just incorrigible.
