Opinion polls, particularly in the buildup to a presidential election, are not designed to reflect public opinion, but instead to shape it. For the media, objectivity is only of historic interest, a journalistic tenet from a bygone era. Now most of the media is embedded within the Democrat party, serving as an advocacy arm or political action committee to influence elections and agendas.
A CNN staffer, who bragged that he was “one step down” from a director, admitted to an undercover Tinder date, actually a real journalist working for James O’Keefe’s Project Veritas, that CNN was “creating a story” that “we didn’t know anything about,” calling it “propaganda” to help remove President Trump from office. The epitome of fake news.
Their headline on the day after Biden’s speech was “7 in 10 who watched say Biden’s speech left them feeling optimistic.”
Start with the bit about “who watched.” How many Americans gave up an hour of their evening to watch what the media thought was a speech on par with Martin Luther King Jr.’s “I have a dream” speech? Not too many.
Charlie Kirk tweeted out TV ratings for presidential addresses.
Trump 17—48,000,000
Trump 18—46,000,000
Trump 19—46,800,000
Trump 20—37,200,000
Biden 21—11,600,000
The last figure was the sum total of the three main legacy television networks - CBS, ABC, and NBC, plus Fox News. Nielsen reports the audience from more sources at 26.9 million. Either way, Biden drew considerably less of the audience that Trump did in his first congressional address and far less than in Trump’s final address, even when cable media are included. As the Last Refuge noted,
That’s over a 60% decrease in viewership. No crowds ever attended his rallies. There was no crowd at his installation. There are no views for his on-line speeches. The audience for his regular speeches are non-existent. Virtually no viewers at home. An empty chamber for his speech,… and yet we are to believe he received 81 million votes.

If the policies are so great, why lie?
If you are reporting the news, why skew it?
If you did nothing wrong in the election, why fight an audit at every step?
They are conditioning people to believe a narrative, so that when their duplicitous reporting comes out, people's minds are already made up. Once the mind is made up, it is much like inertia, it takes too much energy and work to look at all the facts and make up your own mind, so most do the lazy and easier thing and just keep drinking the Koo-aid. Gives them more time to act like keyboard Nazis.
