Fox News is Losing a Poll on NPR. Vote Now!
This email appeared in my inbox after being forwarded at least 4 times.
"Fox News is losing in a National Public Radio Poll, but with the power of the Internet we can turn that around in a few hours.
If you haven't heard this, the White House is accusing Fox News of not being a legitimate source of news, calling them biased, etc. They have tried to block Fox reporters from news conferences, etc.., NPR has put a survey online for us to voice our opinion. Currently it is 59% in favor of the White House, because mainly liberals log on to the NPR website.
If Fox loses this poll you can bet Obama will mention it as support for his attack on Fox.
Let's show them how we feel about honest conservative news reporting.

Then ... forward this to everyone!"
After I voted, these poll results appeared:
Fox News on this one; it asks questions others don't and the White House should be able to handle them.
80% (877,641 votes)
I believe we ARE the silent majority.

Bob- Thanks I voted, here is the total of people who support the white house 18% (202,666 votes) How fitting.
And this is really funny - once they saw that they had not got the result they were looking for they posted the following. I almost spat out my coffee when I read it!!
Update at 7 a.m., Oct. 31: I would like to say thanks to all those who were inspired to vote. As Raw Story explains, the poll touched off a competition. That's a good thing, in my opinion. These kinds of surveys aren't meant to be scientific. They're intended to stimulate discussion and give folks another way to express themselves. We certainly accomplished that.
Larry and Simon, thanks for stopping by and commenting! :)

P.S. Simon, sorry about referring you to the source of info responsible for your coffee incident...but it is almost midnight in Florida! :)
Simon- Thats funny, Im going to have to check back in on NPR from time to time.
Change that dang title... Fox isn't losing anything! :)
Total Votes: 1,201,146
I voted thank you!
Tana, I initially used that title because it was the title of the e-mail that I was originally sent...but I think I'll keep it 'cause it makes people look! :)
Thanks for your vote, Nicholas! :)

P.S. This is how it looks now:
The White House on this one; Fox News isn't "fair and balanced." 16% (211,340 votes)
Total Votes: 1,331,791
Fox was at 83% when I just voted. WH at 16%
Thanks for this post. Somehow I had missed this about the voting. Important stuff to get out to many people.
Free speech is important. I'm not really surprised that THIS white house staff is trying to discredit it!
