I didn't say they were. But you forgot to address the part of my post where I said that most people aren't going to read through 11 pages of a poll and then realize the sample was tainted. They are just going to read the actual story, and take it at face value. The people (including you) that linked to the times article as an absolution to say that "most americans support the health care plan" based on the ARTICLE the Times printed. Doesn't change the fact that the sample is flawed.I didn't even know about the poll until it was linked here. I can't speak for others but I never take a poll at face value and generally only trust a poll if polls from several other sources yield similar results. As you're insinuating, polls are really only good for generating sensational headlines and little else. |
