Earlier this month, when Jon Stewart and "The Daily Show" totally decimated the credibility of Fox News in general and Fox News anchor Megyn Kelly specifically because of the way that the supposed straight news anchors on Fox News like Megyn Kelly keep aggressively opposing health care reform under the guise of speaking for the majority of the American people, I thought it might make Megyn Kelly and the other Fox News anchors a little more circumspect on the subject, but, this week, despite that drubbing from "The Daily Show," Megyn Kelly continued using questionable poll numbers to pretend to speak for the majority of Americans as I show in this video.

The clips of "The Daily Show" that I use in this video come from the segment broadcast on Comedy Central on March 3, 2010, which is available online at http://www.thedailyshow.com/watch/wed-march-3-2010/anchor-management

The graphic I use of from RealClearPolitics showing a variety of poll results regarding the health care legislation from President Obama and the Democrats comes from the page available online at http://www.realclearpolitics.com/epolls/other/obama_and_democrats_health_care_plan-1130.html#polls

The graphic I use of from Gallup showing a variety of poll results regarding the health care legislation from President Obama and the Democrats comes from the page available online at http://www.gallup.com/poll/126521/Favor-Oppose-Obama-Healthcare-Plan.aspx

And, finally, the graphic I use from Xavier University showing a poll result regarding the difficulty of reaching the American Dream comes from the page available online at http://www.xavier.edu/politics/documents/American-Dream-Presentation.pdf

1. Those who follow "Liberal Viewer" on YouTube...
Have you noticed the kid at the beginning of all his videos is getting older?

I know, this has nothing to do with the story...Just thought I would say it anyway.

2. Faux and Polls
Aren't these the same guys that recently had a poll that surveyed 120% of Americans on Climate Change?

3. Megyn Kelly kept going on about the false polls for over 7 minutes with Debbie Wasserman Schultz
She probably closed the comments due to a massive troll attack: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vRKfLn4x1SM

Thanks for posting, I rec'd this earlier and am surprised it didn't go higher up the greatest. Thanks for the link to the Daily Show segment, too. I missed that one.
