This poll sends an interesting message, but what came first, the message or the poll?

Shame on viewers who limit their news to only FOX or MSNBC.

Shame on citizens who limit their news sources PERIOD. All of them have some failings and the only way to get a fairly accurate picture is to watch a big variety.

Personally, if I was going to restrict myself to a single source, I'd go with the BEEB (BBC). It has a long and honorable history of telling the truth in a literate way.
