Spock 20,290 Posted July 26, 2016 Share Posted July 26, 2016 BuzzFeed News asked Morning Consult, a media and technology company that often conducts political polls, to find out what the broad spectrum of Americans thought about Kim versus Taylor. 75% of the people polled had heard of the whole feud at least somewhat – this was a big deal! Even old people knew about it! This was huge news! And in general, people like Taylor Swift waaaaay more than they like the Kardashian Wests. 55% of people felt favorably about Taylor, but only Kayne only had a 15% favorable rating and Kim only 16%. When they asked who you sided with in the feud, here’s what they found: 34% side with Taylor 8% side with Kim and Kayne 58% don’t know/no opinion So it turns out: Twitter is not real life. The opinions of the internet are not the same as “everyone”. Or something. Idk. *A little more about the poll construction:They polled 2,502 people, all registered voters in the U.S. The margin of error is plus or minus 2 points. Here’s some breakdowns of the demographics: Male 47% Female 53% Age: 18-29 16% Age: 30-44 25% Age: 45-54 21% Age: 55-64 17% Age: 65+ 21% White 81% Hispanic 9% Afr. Am. 13% Other 6% https://www.buzzfeed.com/katienotopoulos/people-still-like-taylor-more-than-kim?utm_term=.wkAben6OLr#.twR0Wa9Zpb Spoiler who will love me when the night is over Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yuuri 21,636 Posted July 26, 2016 Share Posted July 26, 2016 Funny things is, this whole "fued" gave Taylor a huge boost in numbers on Youtube and sales/streams. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
PdogtheDaibutsu 717 Posted July 26, 2016 Share Posted July 26, 2016 People outside of Twitter probably hardly knew what happened, so of course they would just vote based on general reputation. This doesn't justify anything Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

imwoahvicky 4,248 Posted July 26, 2016 Share Posted July 26, 2016 Not surprised. The Kardashians have had a bad reputation for years so I can understand why the general audience would choose Taylor over them I mean, she's considered 'America's sweetheart' so it makes sense ⚜ Roll Deep ⚜ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

OracleMonster 1,704 Posted July 26, 2016 Share Posted July 26, 2016 I don't think a poll is going to determine who won....... with statistics you can manipulate the numbers to be in favor of a certain outcome Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

elijahfan 23,558 Posted July 26, 2016 Share Posted July 26, 2016 Hopefully the Taylor-bashing has settled for people to finally realize Kanye and Kim have just been FULL OF **** for trying to put the "I made that bitch famous line" under the rug. Which is something I kept saying since day 1, but whatever, I know it takes most people some time before thinking clearly. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
