By
Saturday Survey: Much more common (51%) was the thought that mainstream media is corporate owned, so they are wise to downplay or belittle anything that might upset the economic apple cart. And 35% thought today’s journalists much too closely identify with wealthy elites, which slants their coverage of things like Occupy Wall Street.
Saturday Survey: The Beginning

By
In the first of our weekly three-question surveys, you nailed Barack Obama’s choice of Joe Biden as his running mate.

Occassionally, We Get Feedback
By
I love doing surveys and polls. We put questions out on the Web, people answer, we post their responses. It’s a pretty simple process. But this simple process yields a big payoff.
