Highlight:

The way the NYT released results for 7 state polls is a perfect example of pro-Warren media bias [View all] highplainsdem Nov 2019 OP

Their bias is for a horserace, so they need it to be close. nt tblue37 Nov 2019 #1

Charles Pierce disagrees with your assessment. blm Nov 2019 #2

I doubt very much NYT cares for Warren. beastie boy Nov 2019 #3

Good point, nice summary!! UncleNoel Nov 2019 #4

Awesome "analysis" BeyondGeography Nov 2019 #5

Nate Silver has had his knickers in a twist ever since Warren rose in the polls BeyondGeography Nov 2019 #14

He doesn't like polls that have favorites and ignore or tamper with the sample size and massage data Demsrule86 Nov 2019 #21

Hmmm... I get it, but... zaj Nov 2019 #6

But there is a pro-Warren narrative...why do you suppose the Wisconsin poll was put out first and Demsrule86 Nov 2019 #22

I don't think it is pro-Warren bias, but rather the media's attempt still_one Nov 2019 #7

It has, many times. Charles Pierce just wrote about it. blm Nov 2019 #10

Appreciate that blm. and I am not surprised still_one Nov 2019 #18

your beefs seems to rest on a shaky assumption. mopinko Nov 2019 #9

No of course just a happy accident. They are in the tank for warren but cant really Demsrule86 Nov 2019 #16

Mopinko is right. These were different polls, done over different time periods. thesquanderer Nov 2019 #19

You miss the point...one of the six state polls was released early...shows Warren winning by two Demsrule86 Nov 2019 #28

No, that's incorrect. As I said, Iowa was one poll. The 6-state poll was done at a DIFFERENT time... thesquanderer Nov 2019 #40

It was done...the others were released later so... Demsrule86 Nov 2019 #24

Pro-Warren narrative... lol! demmiblue Nov 2019 #11

Nate Silver and the 538 staff see it, too. See the edited OP. highplainsdem Nov 2019 #15

"pro-Warren narrative" jcgoldie Nov 2019 #17

I'm not much on media bias -- except with FOX and similar -- but people would have griped had the Hoyt Nov 2019 #27

How about they get released at the same time...no reason why six of the six polls were not released Demsrule86 Nov 2019 #30

I just don't think there is always a nefarious reason for way things happen. Iowa and NH occur the Hoyt Nov 2019 #33

I would add that all of this favors Warren wouldn't you think a result based on chance would show Demsrule86 Nov 2019 #36

I think the fizzle may have begun...I don't consider Iowa essential to any candidate...I say this Demsrule86 Nov 2019 #37
