An old and irrelevant opinion PulpCutter, that's all it is, its Government Propaganda offered up by one man's opinion, ... your article was from May of last year.

Survey: NPR’s listeners best-informed, Fox viewers worst-informed

NPR #1 in news and information, ... Really???

It was done by one of most "Left Wing University's, on this planet, ... The Fairleigh Dickinson University, we posted this article here oh, .... around 6 months ago, ... gave us a nice chuckle.

Did you post the rebuttal from Fox?, ... Both of them?, ... this is not the first time they took a shot at the Network's actually its nothing to be proud of if you think about it, ... how many people watch or listen to NPR? ... we must all be Dumb, everyone I know watches anything but NPR.

Here is the first paragraph by NPR, ...

<"People who watch no news at all can answer more questions about international current events than people who watch cable news, a survey by Fairleigh Dickinson University’s PublicMind finds.
NPR and Sunday morning political talk shows are the most informative news outlets, while exposure to partisan sources, such as Fox News and MSNBC, has a negative impact on people’s current events knowledge.">

So I can watch NO news at all and be smarter and answer more questions then all of you here? Really???

All I get from this whole mess is that NPR is promoting ITSELF? ... Its a Government owned and run entity, and I'm sure you know that.

By the way, ... FOX, CNN and MSNBC and a few others have some rather negative articles pertaining to this insulting and inaccurate opinion.

Pulp -- This has all been brought up and discussed here before -- along with much of your most recent commentary. I suppose it can all be discussed again and again, but I think I've already worn out the board on this subject a few months back.

@PulpCutter, others have responded to your post quite adequately, so there is no need to repeat any of it.

However, as an opened minded, knowledgeable thinking man, why did you post it? As an opened minded, knowledgeable thinking man, you knew what a farce it was, yet you posted it anyway. What was the thought process that led you to think it was a worthwhile post? Just curious, TriN

P.S. to the person who Recommended the post, I ask that you answer the same question as to why you would recommend it.
