People Like Us


I'm guessing that if you are reading this you would not classify yourself as 'conservative'.
That also means you probably are knowledgeable about things outside of you neighborhood and the WWF.

Liberals and Conservatives Like Different Entertainment


Not surprisingly, a new Norman Lear Center/Zogby poll reveals that America's entertainment tastes are as polarized as our political views.


A few of the findings:



Liberals were much more likely than conservatives to listen to commentary and entertainment with which they disagreed philosophically.



Fox News wins the prize for the most politically divisive TV channel (70% of conservatives watch it daily and only 3% of liberals).



Over 82% of conservatives say they never watch MTV.


Cerebral material like documentaries and arts and educational programming all appeal more to liberals... Conservative viewers are more likely to watch action-adventure, sports, and business programming.



Conservatives are the least likely group to listen to jazz and reggae... Liberals, on the other hand, are more likely than other respondents to enjoy almost every music genre.
