How do you wind up with a poll which finds that “the most trusted person in America” is left-wing Hollywood gavone Tom Hanks?
Well, Reader’s Digest knew how to do it. Draw up a list of persons from which the respondents will choose the ones they trust the most. When you write your lost, make sure nobody’s on it but actors, TV “personalities,” etc.–and do take care to have no one on the list but lefties. And for good measure, make sure you only ask college students.
The big question is, Why did they do that?
There are all sorts of ways to get exactly the results you want, when you take a poll. And none of them are honest.
The problem is, they have never considered even the trumpet possibility that their worldview might not be correct. That’s the “why” of it.
“Trumpet possibility”? Has Spellcheck done you in again?
I guess. IIRC, I intended to say “the remote” possibility.
Actually, I like “trumpet possibility.” It suggests something that announces itself so obviously and clearly that only an interlektural or entertainer would be able to overlook it.
How come our entertainers aren’t very entertaining?
