If CNN were "liberal", their polls would show Bush doing even worse than the other polls do.
That's not the case. So much for the right-wing fairy tale about CNN being "liberal."

I see by the conservative's comments that they are allergic to facts and/or incapable of reading and interpretting a simple graph.

All of mainstream media is owned by large corporations who have a vested interest in keeping the status quo in Washington. Why would they tell the American people the truth? The American people might start an insurrection and the powers that be can't have that scenario happen.

I would say it doesn't look like any of the poll numbers given on your chart are skewed either way on a consistent basis. The poll numbers from both CNN and Fox appear to be right in the middle of the pack. I see no consistent points above or below the rest.
The reason why CNN is considered liberal is the commentators they employ. Fox News is considered conservative because they employ more conservative commentators. The commentators are those men and women that come on during prime time or share their opinion (like Lou Dobbs) with the world. Commentary is distinctly different from journalism. Journalism is reporting the news, commentary is saying how you think about the news. I see no real difference in the journalism done by Fox and the journalism done by CNN, they report the same news stories. However, their commentary on the stories is different, Fox more conservative, CNN more liberal.

Harry Truman had a decrease approval score, at 22%, and he's seen to be an underrated President in on the instant's u . s .. different maximum unpopular Presidents for the period of their administrations become different greater effective people u . s . has seen. If the Iraq conflict ends the way it truly is going to, people will forget approximately Bush's fault and check out him an favourite President.

You must be kidding! The Communist News Network has never leaned conservative. Polls change according to how the question is worded & where the questions are asked.
My husband did polls for extra money while in college - he said he knew their answers as soon as he read the question & saw the house or neighborhood.
You can make a poll say anything - hence the Bush polls by liberal media.

The Press is unable to deal with the fact that his numbers are ten points lower than Nixons were the day he left office.

That has to be one of the funniest things I have read tonight. CNN is the anti Bush network. There is no way they would inflate his poll numbers.

CNN is fair and balanced news, not to mention America's most trusted.
It's polls are accurate and honest.

Most news sources don't lie when polls are presented. CNN is a leftist reporting agency. Anyone watching it would realize it.
