Despite the Southern California news media's insistence on stressing the results of CNN/USA Today/Gallup Poll results, voters should be skeptical about what is going on with the recall election.
The major networks (ABC, CBS, etc.) and their little pseudo-locals (KTLA, KCAL) have been running wild with the results of CNN/USA TODAY's Gallup poll results, which show a majority supporting the recall and 40% voting for Arnold to a mere 18 for Bustamante. But if you check the numbers, you'll see that the poll is based on merely 787 respondents, who represent a cross-sections of CNN and USA Today subscribers (!?!?), not exactly the most moderate or liberal lot. Unfortunately, the LA newsmedia and other national outlets have been harping on these results in an implied effort to skew the election in favor of the "terminator." So once again we have the mass media trying to brainwash the public into a bandwagon or surrender mentality.
Also, note how many of the major networks in LA are repetatively showing that ridiculous and racially-insulting Ahhnold commercial about Indian gaming. Considering that the guy comes from a Nazi heritage, it appears he's never heard of Native American genocide and sovereignty. Hell, next to him, McClintock looks like a Republican of true integrity,
If you dare watch FOXNEWS, you'll notice the crude banter about how California's "deserve" Ahhnold, whether he's a retard or not, because we are so "skewed to the left and liberal." As if O'Reily and the other sh#$theads had any scruples to speak of. Sorry if California's progressive liberalism scares you neanderthals out there on the East Coast and the South. We didn't vote for the lying-ass cokehead in charge.
To my fellow Californians, keep a sharp perspective when dealing with the media and your fellow voters. Even our
own regional corporate media will turn against us.
