Poll About Media and Politics
I saw this poll this morning and thought what an obvious observation they made. A poll by Rasmussen Reports shows that people seem to overwhelmingly believe that the media is biased towards their candidate of choice.
Voters have little doubt as to who is benefitting from the media coverage this year—Barack Obama. Fifty-four percent (54%) say Obama has gotten the best coverage so far. Twenty-two percent (22%) say McCain has received the most favorable coverage while 14% say that Hillary got the best treatment.
The poll also showed that people believe Obama is getting the most favorable treatment by the media. No big surprise there as Obama is obviously the media’s candidate of choice.
