charlesoberonn: shaughan: YouGov poll shows what people assume vs reality. Most of what folks assume is the result of the relentless propaganda of the Left and media. Except when you look at the actual results instead of Fox News’ cherry picked examples you’ll see that Americans tend to overestimate minorities and underestimate majorities in pretty much all cases, regardless of politics.Unless you think leftist propaganda is trying to make it seem like there’re more Christians and car owners than there really are?My theory is that media (all media regardless of politics) tends to focus on rare things because they’re uncommon and thus more interesting to the average person. But this media exposure makes these rare things seem more common than they actually are, while common but underreported things appear rarer. -- source link
