That’s funny ... by coincidence a new Fox News study finds University of Maryland researchers to be seriously misinformed.

A recent study of MSN viewers and NYT readers showed that 100% who said they voted for Obama believe raising taxes creates jobs.

"Misinformed" = "Don't believe state-run media's propaganda."

“voters were asked whether the TARP program, otherwise known as the bailout, was started under President Bush or President Obama”

A push question. You’re looking for a certain outcome.

Now choose other important questions, such as the history of the current president of the United States, his votes on key issues while in Illinois, etc., etc., and you will find that CNN/MSNBC/Network viewers are more “uninformed”.

Push polls are absolutely 100% meaningless. The sooner that fact is understood by a plurality of the people, the sooner we can be free. It’s a fact that leads to many other facts.

Here we go again! Another study funded by the Left that purports to show conservatives as mouth breathing, knuckle dragging monkeys... Trust us, U of M... we know EXACTLY what is going on and we also know who your big donors are. Keep publishing this junk and you will begin to see smaller and smaller donations each year... Defund the LEFT!

American voters to be vastly misinformed.

The standard of evaluation of whether a person is misinformed is if they agree or not with statist government bureaucrats or libtard economists.

There’s a great analysis of everything that’s wrong with this poll (long post, but worth the read for anyone who’s interested):

FReepers are #1 at being up to speed. Fox viewers are #2. MSNBC and alphabet watchers are so damn politically dumb that it’s pathetic.

I find many “Lifetime” and “BET” viewers to be misinformed as well; what is their point?

Here's another take on this story:

Extended exposure to Fox News makes voters stupid, university study finds

"Over 40% of respondents said President Obama started TARP even though TARP was signed into law by President Bush on October 3rd of 2008. This sort of misinformation within the American electorate shows up again, and again, and again in crucial areas of public policy."

Hey, this is great news.

It means Obambi is getting the blame, even for stuff he didn't do.

The worm is turning...I like it.

What this poll really means is that they are not brain washed like the idiots at University of Maryland. I would love to see the see that poll and the questions that were answered. Moreover, the people that were polled. 1,000,000.00 it’s rigged.

The text in blue, according to the article, is what you have to believe to be "well-informed"...

- 68% of Americans said the stimulus package saved or created only a few jobs. 20% said that the stimulus caused a loss of jobs. Only 8% said the stimulus saved or created millions of jobs. The non-partisan Congressional Budget Office (CBO) estimates the stimulus saved or created anywhere between 2.0 to 5.2 million jobs. A survey of economist from The Wall Street Journal found that the stimulus had a “net positive effect” on growth.

- 53% of Americans believe the health care reform law will increase the deficit. According to the CBO the Affordable Care Act will reduce the deficit by $124 billion through 2019.

- 55% of voters believe that the economy is getting worse. The U.S. Bureau of Economist had the American GDP growing by 2.5% over the last quarter. The average Americans income grew by 0.5% over the month of October.

It’s all about which questions they chose to ask, and how they decide who’s “wrong”. Utterly bogus.
