Cable News Viewers Have a Skewed Attitude Toward Gaza War, Survey Finds in c/news

The Document Cloud data from this survey of roughly 1100 Americans, was unreadable on mobile.

“Cable news” is such an amorphous term, with plenty of crossover (“Get your NBC News on our app, or Roku and stay connected…”) that I’d like to see their definitions before commenting further.

One data point I found depressing? People who get their news via print only, were least prevalent; less than those who said they avoided news in any form.

Some 330,000 years ago, giant apes the size of elephants roamed the forests of southern China. Their massive teeth—once sold as a "dragon tooth" by a Hong Kong apothecary—gnawed tough leaves and devoured fruit. Then suddenly, while other primates were thriving, these supersized orangutan-like creatures vanished with almost no trace.
