1. Odd that the poll ends... |
|
... August 2004, and that it offers a chance to win a new iPod. Don't think you'll see results of this poll.

2. Their FAQ says the results will start showing up 8/2004 |
|
I've done a few of these things before, but I've never seen a result. I hope this doesn't turn out to be another email harvesting scam.

10. i told them their poll was bullshit |
|
they think everything comes down to TV personalities ... I told them the real issue was centralized corporate control of our mass media ...
i'm fairly confident they don't really give a damn what I think ...
what they're really trying to do is acquire demographic data to sell to the networks ...
