It is clear that the so-called polls conducted by most media outlets simply end up reflecting the views and presentation of the network itself, since those views will be typical of the majority of people who bothered to watch that network. People tune into what they agree with, not what they despise. That way they will be sure to have all their favorite ideas reinforced.
