DumbAss Zogby Poll-movies stars babies and "summer reads"?
I just took a zogby poll and it had absolutely NO political or current issue questions. It wanted to know which movie star's baby was luckiest, what I would do if I won the lottery (like some stupid tv show is about), which of these books am I looking forward to reading this summer, on and on. I guess perhaps it was about current social issue problems of how trite can you be. I do hope they read my written in "other" answers.

Anyone else gotten this one yet?

1. Oh yes
First question was whether you had a doctorate or not. I was expecting the other questions to deal with education or perhaps issues involving a university. Frankly, I hadn't heard of the movie stars and my choice for a summer read was a 1930s murder mystery. I only wished they'd given us more places where we could write in comments. Mine would have been, "WHO CARES?????"

11. I do -- but all questions there were about what consulting I would
be willing to do and then I still got all the babies and other crap. I wrote to them with my utter frustration at their questions.

2. Not yet, but I'm sure I will. Zogby doesn't only poll political stuff.
Anyone with the $$ can hire them to poll almost anything.

Do you think it could have been someone associated with the media? You know how we've all been complaining about the MSM spending WAY too much time covering movie star's babies, and fluff pieces. I'd be thrilled to do that poll if I thought it would get the media to change...at least a little!

3. I also got the poll asking about doctorates
Edited on Sun Jun-04-06 01:59 PM by Generic Other
then it was all about Hill and Bill. Wanted to know if I'd back her for pres and him for UN directorship. Either/or both. It was all Hill and Bill.

No celeb babies though...

:shrug:

7. I didn't get HIll and Bill, but answered
no to doctorate. Maybe if I'd answered yes they'd been interested in my politics? No doctorate=junk tv and movie star obsessions?

12. So when was the last presidential approval rating poll?
Did I miss it? It's been weeks since the 28-29% ratings came out. Have there been any since? I want to see * hit the TEENS!
