7. God, I detest that channel!
I don't watch much television news anymore anyway. I just can't sit through it. They don't report the news that's really happening and I feel like I'm sitting through an installment of E.T.

10. 2B honest, I have a weakness for Sci Fi station.
and the comedy channel.
But news? Local stuff? Just how many fires and police shootings can one watch? How many missing blonde, bimbo-esque, coke snorting, drunken, ditzy "Perfect" spoiled HS girls in Aruba do we need on headline news? Is that more important than Darfur? Zimbabwe? Crawford? John Roberts? This new twit Edelman?

12. I confess a Sci-Fi watcher and the Science Channel.
It's fun to watch the Illuminati themes being played out on those Sci-Fi channel made movies.

to fill out a bunch of forms they send and then they send you a magazine. We haven't been polled (Me, MrG and G daughter signed on) yet.

I think they were forced to even out the political leanings of their respondents. The sample appeared biased.
