Exit Polls: Why The Media Is A Joke

So I am watching Tweety to get a read on how the early exit polls are going (if Tweety is very happy, the exit polls provide good news for Obama), not that unweighted early exit polls are not that helpful. But I got instead yet another of example of how stupid the Media can be. (BTW, the early exit polls are rumored to again favor Obama.)

But now on to the stupidity. The networks decided to ask a question about trade. And it turns out that most Dem voters think trade is bad. So the conclusion is "trade big issue tonight!" Ask a question about an issue then conclude it was a big issue! How stupid can you get?

Hey, ask them about the pledge of allegiance. I bet that can be the "big issue" too. Unbelievably dumb.
