This poll would have been better with a longer list of single responses along with a "check all applicable" option.
A bandolier of carrots would be appreciated about now

No "All of the above" plus newspapers,so I said Jon Stewart. Besides, that's the funny answer, (though some people fail to realize this.)

Speaking as someone who voted for this option (BTW, I really enjoy the daily polls, and kudos to whoever came up with the idea), I point out that Jon Stewart, unlike the so-called news shows, actually talks about the events of the day. He's interested, he cares, and he's involved.
What, I'm supposed to listen to Glenn Beck? Maybe not.
It takes months to find a customer, but only seconds to lose one.
The good news is that we should run out of them in no time.

Fortunately (or unfortunately, depending upon how you view it), Jon & his staff do much better fact checking than the vast majority of what you see on FNC, and they are skilled at finding and pointing out the hypocracy of those who are in power and in the spotlight. On both sides of the aisle and all those loons in state & local government and the business world.
"We hear of the conversion of water into wine at the marriage in Cana as of a miracle. But this conversion is, through the goodness of God, made every day before our eyes. Behold the rain which descends from heaven upon our vineyards, and which incorporates itself with the grapes, to be changed into wine; a constant proof that God loves us, and loves to see us happy." Benjamin Franklin
