Fox news poll, should be reliable.

[–] UniversalMonk@lemmy.radio -4 points 22 hours ago (2 children)

Just as reliable as the other news orgs.

[–] peteypete420@sh.itjust.works 2 points 18 hours ago

I do not believe that for a second. Don't get me wrong, I don't think any of them are bastions of truth but fox is NOTHING but propaganda. I think the other keep some nuggets of truth in there with the proaganda.

How many billion-dollar lawsuits did they lose recently?

Well the other news orgs call it a news org. Wikipedia calls it a news org. The general public calls it a news org.

But yes, I am very aware that Lemmy doesn't call it a news org.

I consider them a news org, and I mod the community, so...

I promise you, other news organisations do not think of Fox as a news organisation

But thanks for reminding us to block this community!

Fox forgot a global pandemic might have skewed the numbers a bit for both of them

You don't think a global lockdown affects daily life and work?

[–] UniversalMonk@lemmy.radio -3 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

Well, Biden ordered it. So yeah, I guess that skewed things, but I remember everyone praising him.

But yeah, that could have skewed the numbers. But doesn't make the poll wrong. It just provides a reason for it.

It does make this post' title rather misleading

[–] UniversalMonk@lemmy.radio 1 points 7 hours ago (1 children)

I don't think it's misleading at all. And it's the name of the article.

[–] Boomkop3@reddthat.com 1 points 4 hours ago* (last edited 4 hours ago)

yep, and it ignores context to go straight to blaming someone. I would've expected better

[–] sxan@midwest.social 14 points 1 day ago (1 children)

"A big group of Trump supporters are polled, and over half of them say Biden made the economy worse."

Same title, more accurate.

[–] LuxSpark@lemmy.cafe 5 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I wonder why they think that🤔

[–] UniversalMonk@sh.itjust.works -3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Pretty sure the economy would be the same regardless of pres, tho...

[–] LuxSpark@lemmy.cafe 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Yeah, I know. I imagine it's the 24hr propaganda.

[–] UniversalMonk@sh.itjust.works -3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

24-hour propaganda from both the Dems and the Repubs.

[–] LuxSpark@lemmy.cafe 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)
[–] UniversalMonk@sh.itjust.works -4 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

Yep. Exactly the same. No matter how mad that makes Lemmy.

Thanks!

It’s true though. But to keep the economy stable it would have meant standing aside while Russia took Ukraine. Republicans are exactly the kind of people who like to brag about all the things America has done to help the world while not wanting to those things in the first place.

We gotta lot of shit we need to fix here, before we help the rest of the world.
