Why isn’t Seattle Bubble one of the choices? Do you consider yourself bias-proof?

Not at all. It’s just a follow-up to last week’s poll, and is focused only on commercial news sources. No blogs included.

Since there’s a lot traffic about WaMu going on in the other contemporary threads, this might be a good place to put this little tidbit. There was an interesting letter in the Times’ LTTE page today that may be of interest to the assembled.
Link is here

The letter in its entirety says:
An ex-resident of western South Dakota now living in Gig Harbor sent me a Northwest Voices page knowing I’d be impressed with the letters to the editor quality. I was.
Northwest residents, you don’t know how fortunate you are to live in a community where intelligence and progressive ideas prevail over the Bible-thumping ignorance that bombards us in the hinterland.
Why don’t those of us with IQs greater than our shoe sizes leave our intellectually bankrupt areas and join you on the coast? I think my personal reasons are quite typical:
1) The 80G we might get for our beautiful home-plus-two-car-garage with a rented apartment on top, located on an acre of forested land in the best side of town, wouldn’t buy a chicken coop in Seattle — and I doubt you have many.
2) Our pre-computer-age degrees would relegate us to sweeping floors in your hi-tech economy. (I do a lot of that here, but can live on it.)
So — guess we’re stuck but would love to communicate with people from the civilized world.
— Terry Painter, Rapid City, S.D.

I can’t vote on this poll because I haven’t regularly read a newspaper in 8 years. Maybe you should have a poll of where people get their news from?

Can we have a new poll on the “hopenow” subprime bailout ? I personally feel the politicians are rewarding irresponsibility for the sake of votes in a election year.

I’ve already got next week’s poll set up, but I don’t see why a poll on “Hope Now” can’t be scheduled for the week after.
