Cable News Poll

AOL customers are being asked to rate the cable news networks. Now while I'm convinced from previous polls that the AOL subscribers are mostly liberal - I don't think liberals watch that much news or are that well informed. They are more interested in style than facts... they're more interested in what is fashionable than developing personal political principles. OK... that's a BIG generalization, but I think it's a good one. I think that conservatives are more likely the news junkies... and more likely to be interested in addressing this AOL poll. That said...
