Ignorant Americans

xxxBy VictorM: This poll is surprising to me. Sure, I do expect Fox News viewers to believe this nonsense, but Fox News hardly has this many viewers:
Six years after the 9/11 terror attacks on the U.S., it seems the media still have some educational work to do. A new CBS/New York Times poll reveals that even today, 1 in 3 Americans believe that "Saddam Hussein was personally involved in the September 11th, 2001, terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon."

This notion was thoroughly debunked by official sources, including those in the White House, years ago, but the myth endures. Polls have shown that belief in this untruth was a prime component in support for the attack on Iraq.
Although the White House has admitted there is no relationship between Saddam and 9/11 they have done so quietly while all the while their network of misinformation continues to propagate the lie.
