Big news today!

I have just published a report by three statistics wizards showing, quite convincingly, that the weekly Research 2000 State of the Nation poll we ran the past year and a half was likely bunk.

We contracted with Research 2000 to conduct polling and to provide us with the results of their surveys. Based on the report of the statisticians, it’s clear that we did not get what we paid for. We were defrauded by Research 2000, and while we don’t know if some or all of the data was fabricated or manipulated beyond recognition, we know we can’t trust it.

...

As for Research 2000, the lawyers will soon take over, as Daily Kos will be filing suit within the next day or two.

This is particularly bad for our own forum poster punked. The vast majority of the polls he's cited over the last year or so have indeed been conducted by Research 2000! :lol:

Good thing there are still journalists out there to dig for the facts even it makes them look silly. Must hurt knowing the DailyKos only seeks the truth Shady unlike the rags you post your stories out of.

The so-called rags I post from are The Washington Post, The New York Times, Associated Press, Politico, etc. I wasn't aware you considered them less than reputable sources! :rolleyes:

Nice try.

Indeed. It was because of the Enquirers investigative ( :ph34r: ) coverage when no other outlets would touch the Edwards affairs that had The Enquirer being considered for a Pulitzer prize.

Don't think the Daily Kos has had that distinction yet...

RIGHT of SOME, LEFT of OTHERS

If it is a choice between them and us, I choose us

You mean the same National Enquirer that broke the John Edwards affair? The same National Enquirer that was nominated for a Pulitzer prize?

Anyways, I was talking about polls. Most of the polls punked has cited have been the now to be found fraudulent Research 2000 polls. Btw, the National Enquirer doesn't conduct polls.

Tell me more about the Enquirer story about Obama having gay sex in a limo. Why didn't you post that gem of a story Shady? Oh yeah cause the Enquirer is a rag.

Wait wait where were you on this Sarah Palin cheating story from the National Enquirer Shady?

Lets not forget the gem from the Enquirer "Arizona Man Captured by UFO published Dec. 16, 1975."

That is where Shady gets his news from the same place that runs UFO abduction stories no wonder he voted republican he will believe anything.

Actually, you lied. My Al Gore thread isn't a story from the Enguirer. I expect you to apologize for lying.

Anyways, is the Police Department that released audio of his sexual assault accuser also part of the National Enquirer?! :lol:

It is from the Enquirer Shady sorry. You might want to track back the story to the ORIGINAL source of the story. As for the Police Department the report they made that said the lady who made the accusations was crazy and they would not pursue was not published in the Enquirer no I wonder why and I wonder why you didn't mention it. Oh because you get your news from the Enquirer not the NYT or any other real paper that set the record straight.

Shady the alien abducting conspiracy theorist. It is ok maybe the aliens are in the head of the president Shady maybe you should make a thread about it.

Nope. You're completely wrong. The original source wasn't the national enquirer. However, all of your polls were from Research 2000. The now fraudulent Research 2000 polls. Perhaps that's why you thought Corzine, Deeds, and Coakley were going to win. Research 2000 fooled you into believing they were actually leading, when in reality, they were several points behind. :)

Again you are wrong the original source is the National Enquirer. You might want to check up on that because the AP, and NYT report the accusations come from the National Enquirer Shady. So while maybe those polls were wrong at least I now know they were. You don't even know where the news you post comes from. So when do you post the alien abduction stories? Hahahaha Shady and his national enquirer it is classic.

So Shady I have excuse for my wrong calls what happened to you on Tim Burns, Doug Hoffman and Teddy Disco? Hmmmmmm. Must be those National Enquirer polls right? Maybe they were abducted.

At least the Kos knows when they are wrong says so and tries to make it right unlike the rags you post here.

That's the impression I get too. The Enquirer on the other hand... :lol:

Nope. Dailykos is just covering their butt. they're embarassed that they got shafted out of money for worthless polls. They're also embarassed because they went on television repeatedly asserting the polls they conducted to be accurate. The egg is all over their face. That's why I don't cite blog polls. Only traditional Washington Post, New York Times, Associated Press, etc.

Ummmmm I know you only read NTY, Washington Post, and AP stories which report what the enquirer is saying but if you looked into it, the RK2000 polls were all those papers as well Shady.

Maybe if you spent less time reading alien abduction stories and more time actually reading those news sources you would know this.

Why don't you address the original point in this thread?Is it because you had your legs cut out from under you?

Beware the Brookfield industrial complex...

I didn't know about the alien abduction stories until you mentioned them.

Yeah, he rarely addresses original points. Instead, his MO is to deflect topics into discussions about Sarah Palin, Rand Paul, or Bobby Jindal. Mainly because he's void of any real arguments.

It is addressed. Now you might think that pointing out that a left wing news source coming out and saying their source was wrong, retracting their previous stories and trying to correct the record is a bad thing I don't. Which is why I pointed out the same time this left wing news source is trying to be responsible with the news the Right wing (like Shady) is report a "news" story from a source that writes about alien abductions is off topic. I feel like it is the topic of this thread.

The point clearly went over your head because it was not spelled out in big block letters it did not go over others heads though. Glad I could slowly walk you through the topic of the thread though.
