(MENAFN) Leading polling corporations finds that many Americans are much more concerned about topics like violent crime and inflation heading into the November midterm congressional elections than they are about the Russia and Ukraine conflict and other items that have been emphasized by major United States media outlets.
Rasmussen Reports declared on Saturday that "Legacy media gaslighting has failed, massively," quoting polls that revealed a discrepancy between the issues that voters find most troubling and the things that cable news channels focus on the most. Many voters have dismissed the Ukraine situation in particular since it did not place among the top 12 topics and just one in five Americans rated it as "very important."
In contrast, according to Rasmussen, 87 percent of voters are "concerned" and 56 percent are "very concerned" about violent crime. Other major concerns include the economy (84 percent and 55 percent), illegal immigration (84 percent and 54 percent), high gas costs (86 percent and 57 percent), inflation (85 percent and 57 percent), and energy policy (87 percent worried and 54 percent extremely concerned).
