IHateTheMedia.com has been up and running for a mere 17 months and 66% of American voters now agree that they also hate the media.
As highly-trained mathematicians, we were quickly able to determine that 100% of the nation’s voters will agree with us in another 8 months and three weeks.
Rasmussen reveals the details of IHateTheMedia.com’s vast influence:
Sixty-six percent (66%) of U.S. voters describe themselves as at least somewhat angry at the media, including 33% who are Very Angry.
A new Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey finds that 31% say they are not angry at the media, but that includes just nine percent (9%) who say they are not at all angry.
…But voters have consistently said in surveys that they believe the national media has a liberal bias and that most reporters try to help the candidates they want to win. Just before Election Day 2008, 51% said most reporters were trying to help Barack Obama win the presidency. Just seven percent (7%) thought they were trying to help John McCain, while 31% viewed their coverage as unbiased.
Now 48% of voters think most reporters when they write or talk about President Obama are trying to help the president pass his agenda. Only 18% think most reporters are trying to block the president from passing his agenda. Twenty-seven percent (27%) say they are simply interested in reporting the news in an unbiased manner.
Thank you. Thank you very much. We appreciate your support and please rest assured that we will continue our battle for truth, justice and the American way. At least until we can sell this damn thing to Salem Communications for millions of dollars. Or thousands. We might be willing to settle for thousands. Make us an offer.

This is the first thing I read every morning.
The only reason there is to read CNN or MSNBC is to learn what the liberoo's are going to screw with next.
Yes, IHTM is truly a wonder to behold. I love it here... especially as I'm on self induced "politics" blackout right now... no Glenn (man I miss him) or Rush or newspapers or anything. My cup had overflowed with bad news and was making me sad. But this site always makes me laugh, and it's nice to see discussions going on amongst (mostly) like minded people. Even the trolls are fun here. :D
Keep up the great work IHTM! You are now my number one source of news.... until I break down some night at 5 and turn Glenn on.
You missed a good week of Glenn, James!
Yes this is the one website that I keep coming back to every day. It is a great site. Really good debates and conversations around here. Keep up the good work!
I Love IHTM!! Please keep doing what you do! The Interweb would be a dark dark place without the Shining Star, that is IHTM, to remind us WHY we should ALL Hate the Media!
Please don't sell out!
I love what the media have to say-as they give you guys all the material you could ever wish to have-were it not for those scornful ninkompoops, you guys would be out of work! So, bravo to them for being effing morons-and bravo to you for sharing their stupidity with us!
You are, and will continue to be my first stop in the am when the computer goes on, and my last stop at the end of a long work day!
This is one of my favorite sites - I really enjoy the selection of topics, the wit in the accompanying text and the comments!
p.s. a poll of poll-recipients says that 50% of poll-recipients don't like polls and lie to them ... the other 80% ....
Much appreciated.
Well deserved credit. On to the Nobel prize. Perhaps you'll be in line or either Barak's or Gore's when they're forced to give them back.
Keep up the fantastic work!!!
