Update
I am not making this up.
If you have read my rants more than once, you probably know that I have a low opinion of the people that read the local news. Not as people, but there is a difference between being smart and portraying smart on TV. Some of them aren't that good as protrayers (not an actual word).
I was just watching "Who Wants To Be A Millionaire" and the contestant was a former news anchor, named Sally. Sally is 40ish and pretty easy on the eyes, as you might expect. She isn't that good of a portrayer though.
She had to use a lifeline to figure out that the equator passes through Africa, not Europe. Next question was the color of the Iraqi voters index finger signifying that they had voted. She had to ask the audience to get purple. However, she instantly knew that Matthew Mcsomebody was the 2005 People Magazine's Sexiest Man in the World.
It is no wonder that you can poll Americans and get any result you want.
Things in this blog represented to be fact, may or may not actually be true. The writer is frequently wrong and sometimes just full of it.
