Gene's Footnotes

I have never been impressed by the messenger and always inspect the message, which I now understand is not the norm. People prefer to filter out discordant information. As such, I am frequently confronted with, "Where did you hear that...." Well, here you go. If you want an email version, send me an email.

Snapshot of American Opinion

I am depositing here the headlines from Rasmussen Reports.  The headlines alone demonstrate the country is not as advertised by major media.  What is interesting is the nature of the questions.

In any event, we see the dichotomy between the oligarchy and the people.  The people are getting information outside TV and the NYT, so the media control is drying up.  Obama is moving to control the Internet, but he will not have any success in time for the next election.  If the FCC decided to exercise control next year, the public reaction would be massive.  Politicians are smart about politics, so unless they are in a desperate mode, they will not make a Hitlerian move at this time.

BTW I use Rasmussen because it is very accurate.  It beat every other poll in the 2008 election.
