Issue #1:

"Half of New Yorkers Believe U.S. Leaders Had Foreknowledge of Impending 9/11 Attacks and "Consciously Failed" To Act[.]"

versus, in the footnote,

Zogby International conducted interviews of 808 adults chosen at random in New York State.

*****

Unless there are only 808 people left in New York City, let alone New York State...and I'm sure I saw twice that many just on the subway this morning...I believe that the author meant to indicate,

"Half of New Yorkers polled..."

or

"404 New Yorkers evidently believe that..."

Right? I mean, phrased the way it is, it seems that there's potential to mislead the casual browser, wouldn't you say?
