Thompson’s numbers among the GOP faithful have been moving in the opposite direction. Sixty-four percent (64%) of GOP voters have a favorable opinion of the actor while just 12% have an unfavorable view.

Opposite direction depends on how you look at it right? 64 favorable this week compared to 66 favorable last week.
BUT
12% UNFAVORABLE this week compared to 18% last week.

So what does a 2% decline in favorables versus a 6% decline in UNfavorables mean? Is this "net-positive" news?

Statistical noise. Nothing significant about the changes in those numbers.
