It allows you to compare your responses with the results of a May 2004 phone survey.

10. No sweat. Took me a few questions to notice |
|
I had the same reaction as an earlier poster, "Mother fucking Jones has been Freeped?!?" Then I saw the headline at the top of the page.

11. Damn, that was a long poll, but kind of fun if you check |
|
your answers against others. I fear this country is hopelessly divided right down the middle, and that's a dangerous thing. No compromise on either side.

14. I wonder about the "freeped" bit |
|
Edited on Thu Oct-07-04 01:51 AM by qnr
Understanding that it really isn't a poll and you're just comparing your responses, a lot of the questions confused me, and they probably confused the people taking the survey, to make it appear "freeped"
I don't have the poll here, but the areas that confused me were the ones like (paraphrasing, my memory is shot):
Thinking of the last three years, Would you say that the following group was a winner or a loser? *Some Group*
Now, is that saying that I think they were losers because they had to withstand everything that has happened in the last three years, or that they were winners, because even though they had to endure it, they're still plugging away?
Me, I took the "losers" route, thinking that they had lost ground, but I noticed that while most of my replies elsewhere agreed with the respondents, I was in the wrong camp on almost every one in that group.
Not sure if I'm explaining myself well, sorry.

MJ is about as close to socialist as any any fairly commmon magazine gets- all those warm responses for Bush & Cheney aren't coming from regular readers, that much (as a longtime reader) I can assure you.
It's been freeped- but as I said, it's interesting to see some of the results on many of the specific questions.
PS: the winners/losers part was ambiguous. In fact, it's so poorly worded that it made me wonder whether the whole thing was designed as a tacit push poll for the freepers....
