Here's why this poll is just a piece of larger puzzle. You're nitpicking. See the big picture.http://nyti.ms/2fbo9PQ

I see bigger picture, I'm pointing out that you're aptly demonstrating it by sharing meaningless polls as evidence.

I don't follow your claim that it's meaningless. n_who_believe/n_who_saw is the interesting figure.

it's actually n_who_belive / n_internet_polled_who_remember_seeing which vastly over-emphasises the effect.

& the presentation of the values implies to a casual reader that it's n_who_believe / n_polled which is just nasty.

That's nonsense. I didn't interpret it as n_who_believed/n_polled and don't see how anyone would.

What part exactly are you calling BS? The self-reporting of whether they saw the headline before?

Obviously he's going to repeat the same thing over and over until we surrender to his superior brogrammer intellect and repent.
