Coverage Stems Research

We have all seen coverage over the Chris Brown and Rihanna situation.  CNN had articles, so did FOX, almost all networks have brushed the topic.  Rumors spread, and it got ugly. But what is now confirmed is that Chris Brown hit his girlfriend Rihanna causing "horrific" injuries.  Was the coverage too much? If they had been any other couple, this constant coverage wouldn't happen.  I was walking through Wal-Mart the other day and saw US Weekly had them on the cover with "Rihana's Side" written on the cover.  I think it's been over done.  Especially today when I looked at FOX NEWs and saw one of their top stories was 1 in 7 believe it is fine to hit a woman. Gee,  I wonder what recent incident sparked this research.  In my opinion the coverage has been carried extremely far; however, the results in this survey are ridiculous.  It is possible that this over stressed celebrity dispute might lead to a much bigger issue facing America.

  1. Fox News is an "it".

    Why are the "results" of the survey ridiculous? If you want to criticize the premise or the polling (tiny sample 1,086...location: England, undisclosed margin of error, etc.) go ahead. But you shouldn't just call findings ridiculous.
