I’m saving this for the next time I talk to my journalism students about surveys. Language Log.
Do you
think surveys asking for people’s opinions about the way things are,

managers may be snooping on them” being passed off as news or even
social science?__ strongly agree
__ sort of agree
__ utterly undecided
__ hardly care
__ sort of disagree
__ strongly disagree
Does it sometimes occur to you to just
refuse to do any more surveys until the morons who make them up show
some signs of getting their act together?__ strongly agree
__ sort of agree
__ utterly undecided
__ hardly care
__ sort of disagree
__ strongly disagree
