Liberal Media at it Again

New polls out again.
I could care less who is ahead...or the margin of error.

However..If any polls ever showed kerry up by half a point...they would title the poll article "kerry boost...or Kerry leads Bush".

This is regarding websites such as Msnbc.com and Cnn.com

However according to new newsweek/time/reuters/zogby polls showing Bush gaining a slight edgy 2point lead.. The websites of msnbc or cnn dont want to acknowledge the fact or post the fact "Bush leads Kerry"..instead we the audience see "TIGHT RACE" DEADLOCK

But if Kerry gains one point..the media mainstream blows it up

Well, we all know the broadcast t.v. media is favoring Kerry. It's been obvious for quite awhile now.

Their polls are meaninless and are going show up their stupidity and irrelevancy when the votes are all in on election day. All of you who believe these poll are going to be suprised to find Bush really is up way more over Kerry. But then that is your own fault. Didn't you mother ever tell you not to believe everything you see on t.v.?

just a thought, wouldnt it be worse for a candidate to be in a slight lead? cause that would mean that people that support that candidate dont feel it is as important to go vote but the persons that supports the other candidate, will think it is much more important to go vote.

Well, Id be the first to tell you that CNN said that Bush was ahead, with zoby poll that was released after the debate ( though the poll was conducted prior the debate ).. and it said Bush leads.. I dont know what the fuzz is, nor why you call it "liberal" media.... and dont forget to remember that CNN and GALLUP go in pair in terms of poll. I dont know why you say that CNN or MSNBC dont want to acknowledge, when in fact Ive seen pretty recent articles calling it a tight race, or even, saying that Bush leads the electoral college articles as well.. so whats the deal?

Or it could be the other way around, a huge strong lead tours Kerry.

technically, a 2 point lead IS a dead heat, because it is within the margin of error.

and quit with the "liberal media bias". isn't sinclair broadcasting group airing a 90 minute anti-kerry documentary sometime soon? and that too on all of its 62 affiliated stations? there isn't a single - not one - station that's airing an anti-bush documentary of that length.

still think the media has a liberal bias?

I already stated the margin of error nonsense. Acknowdledging who has a lead is different. If Kerry had the lead he will be hailed and have his dick sucked by the media.


THis is the new poll out by CNN/GALLUP POLL

BUSH UP BY 8 now...

Is the media even reporting this or even showing it on their website without having to dig deep???

The media is ridiculous..Im glad Americans are not swaying to John skerry though.

CNN/USA TODAY/GALLUP POLL
October 14-16
Choice for President

Likely Registered
Voters Voters

LIKELY VOTERS
Bush 52% (+9% from previous poll)
Kerry 44%
Nader 1%

REGISTERED VOTERS
Bush 49%
Kerry 46%
Nader 1%

CNN/USA TODAY/GALLUP POLL

FOR RELEASE: Sunday, October 17 at noon

Interviews with 1,013 adult Americans, including 788 likely voters and 942 registered voters, conducted by telephone on October 14-16, 2004

Although Americans think John Kerry did the best job in the debates, that has not translated into an increase in his popularity, which in turn means that he appears to have lost a little ground to Bush. Among registered voters, a 48%-48% tie is now a 49%-46% edge for Bush -- not much of a difference and, with the sampling error, not a significant change. The Gallup likely voter model, which identified those respondents who are most likely to cast a ballot, is magnifying those shifts, with a 49%-48% advantage for Kerry turning into a 52%-44% lead for Bush. What's going on?

For one thing, the charge that Kerry is too liberal, which Bush emphasized mostly in the third and last debate on Wednesday night, seems to be sticking. Nearly half say Kerry's political views are too liberal. (Four in ten say Bush is too conservative.) But didn't Kerry win the debate? Yes, as with the first two debates, the public thinks Kerry did the better job on Wednesday night. But as Al Gore learned in 2000, winning a debate on points does not necessarily translate into votes or make a candidate more popular. As in 2000, Bush's favorable ratings -- Americans view of him as a person -- went up after a debate that he lost. Kerry's favorable rating has remained flat. Republicans seem more enthusiastic about the election, and thus more likely to vote, as reflected in the Gallup likely voter model.

Bush may have energized his base in the final debate at the expense of not appealing to a wider audience -- but he managed to do so in a way that made him more popular than Kerry.

CNN/USA TODAY/GALLUP POLL
October 14-16
Likely Voters'
Choice for President

Now Oct. 9-10

Bush 52% 48%
Kerry 44 49
Nader 1 1

Sampling error: +/-4% pts

QUESTION: Now, suppose that the presidential election were being held today, and it included John Kerry and John Edwards as the Democratic candidates, George W. Bush and Dick Cheney as the Republican candidates, and Ralph Nader and Peter Camejo as independent candidates. Would you vote for Kerry and Edwards, the Democrats,Bush and Cheney, the Republicans, or Nader and Camejo, the independent candidates?

Journalists as a whole are liberals. Majority of them surveyed are more likely to pick Kerry. Just shows how reporting is done
