Doh! Liberal Poll Backfires


vs.



The left-leaning Pew Research Center conducted a survey to see what the audiences of the various political shows knew about politics and what they found goes against the Drive-By Liberal News Media’s "conventional wisdom" about whose audience is better informed about current events. With a simple three-question survey about politicians of high office, it turned out that the audiences of Rush Limbaugh and Sean Hannity answered correctly more than did that of the Colbert Report, Daily Show and CNN.


They were asked these simple questions:


1. Which political party controls the House?
2. Who is the Secretary of State?
3. Who is the PM of Great Britain?




The percentage of the audience who correctly answered these three questions are:



Sean Hannity- 84%, 73%, 49%
Rush Limbaugh - 84%, 73%, 41%
NPR - 73%, 72%, 57% (of course they are more interested in Europe)
Colbert Report - 73%, 65%, 49%
C-SPAN - 63%, 59%, 35%
CNN - 59%, 48%, 29%
