Most Americans oppose Congress authorizing additional funding to support Ukraine in its war with Russia, according to a new CNN poll conducted by SSRS, as the public splits over whether the US has already done enough to assist Ukraine.

    Bullshit. Manufacturing consent.

    SSRS are a C+ pollster. I’d trust them about as far as I can throw them.

    A fucking mail survey on top of that. Talk about self-selection.

    The CNN poll was conducted by SSRS from July 1 through 31 among a random national sample of 1,279 adults initially reached by mail.

    The margin of error could also make actual support go either way.

    Results for the full sample have a margin of sampling error of plus or minus 3.7 percentage points; it is larger for subgroups.

    All in all, a completely useless poll.

      Absolutely awesome find. Thanks for the input. My stomach sank when I read that article this morning on CNN. Couldn’t believe we would give up our support so quickly

      Interesting. David Zaslav, also the guy who pulled programming from HBO Max and renamed it Max.

    Fuck CNN. Another useless “news” network like fawx news.

    Get your news from AP directly or from PBS (who is the only news company that still follows the Fairness Doctrine)
