O'Reilly viewers give Obama 94% approval..

It will be interesting to see how Bill O'Reilly spins this one. In a poll currently posted on O'Reilly's web page at FoxNews.com, 94% of viewers have given President Obama a grade of "A" for his first year in office.

1. 10 to 1, he says his site was hacked.
Then he go off on how this and the alleged phone tampering are the same thing.

Any takers?

13. It's obviously skewed, though it couldn't have happened to a better asshole.

2. You have to factor in the fox bias
Edited on Sat Jan-30-10 05:43 PM by yodoobo
Therefore his approval is at least 98%

4. My bet is, he won't even mention it.
Watch for the poll to mysteriously disappear from the site soon.

7. People don't agree on ANYTHING 94%
Especially nothing political. Wonder what's up with that??? There's no chance people that visit O'Reilly's page think Obama deserves an A.

11. They really are; they mean nothing.
Self-selected population, often intentionally being ordered by someone else to go and mess with stats by deliberately "bombing" a poll with favorable or unfavorable responses.

That's why I don't answer any calls to "DU this poll." I mean, all that means is that the Freepers are saying "Freep this poll" and in the end it means nothing anyway.

Polls mean nothing unless the population polled is selected by the group doing the polling, in a systematic random way, and asked balanced, un-loaded questions that cover the entire range of possible responses. And even then, if the pollster doesn't announce the margin of error, you can tell nothing useful from them.

14. Well, of course. Give aways to wall street, tax cuts, spending cuts, looming

'entitlement' (Medicare) cuts and John McCain/Mitt Romney mandated for-profit private insurance purchase. What's NOT for a RW'er to love?

It's 1982 all over again.

The vast majority knows you are a republicon propaganda pimp and therefore Way Overpaid to Tell Fox Lies and Spin the Truth.

Shame on Boston University for giving you a so-called 'journalism' degree, you sell-out demagogic dimwit, you.
