What Media Bias? CNN and Bush Poll Numbers

posted by Jason
Generation Why?

Compare and contrast two recent stories from CNN.

October 18, 2005 - Bush approval number goes down:

Headline: Bush's job rating continues to drop

<<<

President Bush's job approval rating continues to plummet, with 39 percent of Americans surveyed in the latest CNN/USA Today/Gallup poll supporting his performance, compared to 58 percent expressing disapproval.
>>>

October 25, 2005 - Bush approval number goes UP:


Headline: Poll: Bush would lose an election if held this year

<<<

A majority would vote for a Democrat over President Bush if an election were held this year, according to a CNN/USA Today/Gallup Poll released Tuesday...

In the poll, 42 percent of those interviewed approved of the way the president is handling his job and 55 percent disapproved.
>>>

Took a little extra effort, but CNN was able to find a way to put some negative spin on the poll showing Bush's numbers going up.
