- wybiral 10y agoThanks. Yeah, those are some disturbing results... Do you think it's mostly from misleading mainstream news stories? Or from smaller outlets (social media, celebrities, memes, etc)?
- garanduss 10y agoMisleading mainstream media, IMO. I'm conservative and the headlines about "election hacking" actually duped me until I had the time to read a thorough article about it.
