CNN was still quoting the 38% Quinnipiac poll this morning

despite new polls coming out showing it was an outlier

1. Hadn't seen these other more recent polls.

If he’s at 50% after August he's good.

[JoanofArgh]

3. Thought the same thing. I think the CBS poll came out

last night.

[Polybius]

20. Adding up every major poll, his average approval rating is 43% or 44.5%. depending on RCP or 538

2. Of course, and they lost me as a viewer when they went on their over the top Biden bashing

after the Afghanistan withdrawal

Since AT&T owns them, and the exposure that AT&T was involved in giving birth OAN, no big loss for me

[JoanofArgh]

4. Yeah , me too.

[intheflow]

5. Yikes. I read "Q poll" and my mind went elsewhere.

[JoanofArgh]

6. I'll change it and spell it out.

[PatSeg]

8. Me too!

Anything associated with the letter "Q" needs to be spelled out these days.

7. The media cheerleading against Biden

Crazy, citing the outlier low poll when for Trump they'd consistently cite the outlier high polling data.

Even Yahoo business right now has the headline, "Stocks mixed due to inflation and oil reserve concerns" when you can see the markets are all up substantially on the same screen.

Biden's approval took a hit for ending the Afghan War. He knew it would, he had political capital to spend and he spent it. Look for his approval to keep edging up for the next several months though as things settle down.

9. It would appear that after

four nightmarish years of Donald Trump, most in the media still have learned nothing whatsoever. Creatures of habit I suppose.

[Mad_Machine76]

18. They won't even be able to complain

if Trump or another authoritarian comes along and starts jailing or, worse, killing them, I'm sure that Biden and how he handled our withdrawal from Afghanistan will still be their primary concern.

19. They've learned that social destruction is profitable if you know how to milk it.

[Calista241]

10. The Quinnipiac poll is less than 10 days old.

It's not crazy for it to still be news, or a topic of discussion.

[JoanofArgh]

11. What's dishonest is failing to mention the newer polls that just came

out that show Biden substantially higher.

[Marius25]

12. CNN is Fox-Lite

Look at all the right-wing idiots they invite on their panels. Santorum, Jason Miller, etc. And they just hired Kasie Hunt from MSNBC who is now all in on the Democrat/Biden bashing.

13. President Biden's Approval ratings rebound back to 50% according to the latest CBS poll out today

14. Did they even mention the CBS poll?

If not, that would be very misleading, but it wouldn't be the first time. Also, their own CNN poll from around that time is higher. I remember when trump was in office, they would quote only their own poll and dissect it ad nauseum. They did NOT single out a poll from another outlet just because it was the lowest one.

[JoanofArgh]

21. Nope, no other polls. This was really early around 2:30 am when CNN International is on.

The anchor was interviewing some political strategist I've never seen before about Biden causing problems for McAuliffe's race and better polls wouldn't have fit the narrative.

[Sabuca]

15. Quinnipiac was the least accurate pollster in 2020

And it looks like they are intent on getting worse.

[Submariner]

16. The 74 million racist scum are part of CNNs base

so they feel they need to join Hannity in TFGs lower bowel to be worthy of a both-sides moniker.

[moondust]

17. Wanting their hourly train wrecks back?

More lawless incompetence = more train wrecks, more eyeballs, more advertising $$$$$$$$$!!!!!!!
