The Political Leanings Of America's Anchors -- interesting results...

The Political Leanings Of America's Anchors

Harris Poll asked TV viewers, both Democrat and Republican, to name their favorite and least liked news personalities. The results of the survey, crunched and displayed on our chart, are fascinating.

1. Katie Couric, at the extreme left of our chart, is so heavily disliked by Republican viewers that the new CBS anchor might as well be a communist.

2. These Are Like "Q" Ratings
What advertising agencies use when they find a pitchman for their products...likeability.

It's interesting how few GOOPERS approve of Rushbo...yet he claims he has 20 million listeners a week and O'Reilly kicks his ass.

I'm kinda amused at the negatives on Wolfie...we all agree he's a total twit.

And does anyone like Alan Colmes...even his mother??

Good stuff...thanks for posting!

3. I'd hate to be the agents for Leslie Blitzer, Nancy Grace, the Carlson boy, Greta ......
..... Larry King, or Alan Colmes. NOBODY likes them. If I had to live on commission from fat talent contracts and represented them, I'd be shopping the cat food aisle at Safeway.

4. Interesting nomenclature - "American anchors"
.
.
.
Anchors sink, and hold something(normally a vessel of some sort) in place on a body of water.

worth pondering . .
