gamavor Posted October 12, 2007 Report Share Posted October 12, 2007 These polls can be anything but objective. How many Americans ever heard about the Genocide? How many votes the turks can generate? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zartonk Posted October 12, 2007 Report Share Posted October 12, 2007 As it stands now: 58% Yes 8.1% No 34% Turk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mindtrap Posted October 12, 2007 Report Share Posted October 12, 2007 LOL! 34% turk. Well looks like my work is getting somewhere. Ive been trying to get the word out all over and since I last voted about an hour ago, we've moved up 2% in the YES category. This is the reason I don't post much here as I used to (on other sites). Please, contact your congress men, local representatives, and everyone else people! We are a very powerful group of individuals! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yervant1 Posted October 14, 2007 Report Share Posted October 14, 2007 Every hour the list is growing up by over 10,000 new voters, wow no wonder MSNBC says that the vote is not scientific. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AK-47 Posted October 15, 2007 Report Share Posted October 15, 2007 Well, these numbers are normal. Turkic people outnumber us 9:1 and people in Turkey have more internet connection than people in Armenia do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This poll is a joke I discovered by accident that after you vote and open a news topic to read when you go back to the previous page the vote page resets itself for another vote and on and on.

Sip Posted October 15, 2007 Report Share Posted October 15, 2007 Yah I noticed that too ... you can also switch between browsers and keep revoting (not sure if it is session or cookie based) but seems pretty trivial to write an automated script to inflate the numbers. But then again, who cares what an online vote says? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DominO123 Posted October 15, 2007 Report Share Posted October 15, 2007 Do those morons really believe that anyone can buy that a subject that most Americans don't give a sh!t about has attracted half a million vote in a couple of days? Loosers, they really don't have a life. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nikephoros_Phokas Posted October 16, 2007 Report Share Posted October 16, 2007 (edited) The fanatic Sunni Muslim nation known as Turks have done it again. At least the following print newspapers in their online edition or news portals have full articles urging Turks to intervene in this online web poll: http://www.turkiyegazetesi.com.tr/haberdet...?haberid=350336 http://www.hurriyetusa.com/haber/haber_detay.asp?id=13284 http://www.turkei.net/news_detail.php?id=27914 http://www.dunyabulteni.net/news_detail.php?id=25603 http://www.karapapak.net/turkce/haberler.aspx?id=458 http://www9.gazetevatan.com/haberdetay.asp...p;Categoryid=30 http://www.gelecekonline.com/haber/haber/1...imi-anketi.html http://www.8sutun.com/node/42648 http://haber10.com/haber/96238/ http://www.sonhaber.com/tr/haber_detay.asp?haber_id=14287 Probably the best search terms for Google are: ermenihttp://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/21253084/ (It works, for some reason I had to remove the space.) Instructions for Google to search only .tr domain for sites that contain the link to that poll: http://www.google.com/search?client=opera&...-8&oe=utf-8 Less successful keywords: MSNBC.com Ermeni soykırımıyla MSNBC’nin soykırım MSNBC Anketi Ermeni WOW, just wow. Such a fanatic and vigilant nationalism. They are so low to even make web polls into major news that newspapers should carry, just so they can manipulate public opinion abroad like they do with the fascist Kemalism at home(with article 301). If you sift through those results you will see the massive campaign the Turkish internet world is making over insulting their overblown Sunni muslim sense of honor. Honor is about your good and noble deeds, stupid Sunni muslims, not from being fanatic and uncouth.

Zara Posted April 24, 2008 Report Share Posted April 24, 2008 There is another MSNBC pole. Here's the question: Should PBS have commissioned a panel discussion on its documentary about Turkish-Armenian history? Here's the pole, article, and film.

AVO Posted April 24, 2008 Report Share Posted April 24, 2008 Should PBS have commissioned a panel discussion on its documentary about Turkish-Armenian history? responses *Yes, allowing historians with differing views to debate a film's premise helps increase understanding. 85% *No, if PBS believed the documentary was accurate, it didn't need to provide airtime to critics. 15% What a nice way of wording a denial. Oh and the documentary was about the Armenian Genocide, not Turkish-Armenian history. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh and the documentary was about the Armenian Genocide, not Turkish-Armenian history. That's why I put up the other two links. Most people won't take the time to look back to the article. Have you seen the documentary? I think this is the second time I've seen it aired on television. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AK-47 Posted April 24, 2008 Report Share Posted April 24, 2008 I've seen it, it's pretty solid. I liked the use of Turkish scholars and even citizens that admit that the genocide happened. There was an online campaign back in the time of its launch by Armenians to not let PBS air the debates between McCarthy, Akcam, Balakian and some denialist arse. I think it wasn't worth it because seeing the debate, it's hands down clear who wins it and who gets thrashed. The denialist arse even does a freudian slip as some point.

fluttermoth Posted April 24, 2008 Report Share Posted April 24, 2008 (edited) there has been a very heated and intense dabate about the Armenian genocide film going on over at the IMDB board that I've been following but not contributing to... here; http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0472044/board/threads/ sorry it's not a clickable link; I haven't worked out how to do those yet... edit. oh it is. wow...
