CBS Poll: Tucson Shooting and Rhetoric Not Related


Breaking news!

CBS just did a poll indicating that over 55% of people don't feel that the Tucson shooting and political rhetoric are related.

Contrary to the suppositions of those clamoring for the FCC to reinstate the "fairness doctrine" (regulation requiring radio broadcasters to give equal time to opposing voices) people are able, at least in this instance,  to see what is reported to them and decide the truth for themselves.

Now, how much more informed would we be if the news outlets would actually report?
