In The Tank, Ep 295: New Poll: How Media Distorts Perceptions of Reality

The Heartland Institute's Donald Kendal, Justin Haskins, and Jim Lakely are joined by Issac Orr for episode 295 of the In the Tank Podcast, which was recorded live on YouTube and Facebook.

The ITT crew starts the show by discussing an article about China's use of slave labor to produce solar panels. After this, they talk about a new poll commissioned by The Heartland Institute and Rasmussen reports. The poll, by asking factual questions, shows how cable news networks distort the perceptions of reality of their viewers.
