... In message , HK sprach forth the following: GALLUP NEWS SERVICE PRINCETON, NJ -- The latest Gallup panel survey finds the public bracing for continued rising gas prices this summer. A majority of poll respondents expect gas prices to reach the $4.00 per gallon level in their local area this summer, though only a small minority expects it to reach the $5.00 mark. Roughly two in three Americans say they have already been affected financially in some meaningful way by the high gas prices. The public most often mentions oil company greed as the reason for the high gas prices, though it also mentions other more practical reasons such as problems with refineries. Two questions: 1. If it's "oil company greed", why wasn't gas $5 after Katrina? 2. Are you proud that public opinion is being shaped using the same media techniques ESPN has uses to demonize Barry Bonds? Different sort of question: Would you agree that the 3 entities below have created public impressions that are hard to change? 1) Wal Mart 2) Used car dealers 3) Law firms |
