Poll: 2004 Election Was Stolen; according to viewers of all news

networks except Fox News

In the first poll of its kind, OpEdNews.com, in the second

OpEdNews/Zogby People's poll has learned that except for viewers of

right wing news show, Fox News, poll respondents believe that the 2004

presidential election was stolen.

 

Overall, the poll found that 39% said that the 2004 election was

stolen. 54% said it was legitimate. Shortly after the election, the NY

Times suggested that a few fringe extremists and bloggers were

concerned about the theft of the election.

 

But let's look at the demographics on this question. Of the people who

watch Fox news as their primary sourc of TV news, one half of one

percent believe it was stolen and 99% believe it was legitimate. Among

people who watched ANY other news source but FOX, more felt the

election was stolen than legitimate. The numbers varied dramatically:

 

 

Here are the stats by network listed as first choice by respondent and

whether the respondent thought the election was stolen or legitimate.

 

Network Stolen Legitimate

ABC 56% 32%

CBS 64% 31%

CNN 70% 24%

FOX .5% 99%

MSNBC 65% 24%

NBC 49% 43%

Other 56% 28%

 

 

The poll asked people which was their favorite source of TV news.

Among the 689 people in the poll who answered this question, 37%

watched Fox news,

(they overused many from fox news at 37% to skew poll with false results)

more than any other single network. CNN came in second with 21% with

MSNBC third, with 13%. It makes sense for these three 24/7 news

networks to be the top in this category, since the others air news for

limited parts of the day
