  It would be nice to see their sample grouping though. If someone leaves a finding statement to be as broad as an entire generation, it leaves questions as to who exactly was polled.

  I would expect that a very large number of people across various countries, ethnicities, education levels, health levels, and more for it to be at all legitimate. It would be silly to try to define the entire planet’s worth of a generation off of a small sample like 50 people from across 3 countries.

  I would also love to see if the actual questions were biased or not, and if this group has any incentives for certain findings. I can’t really say that VOX is one of my go-to sources for serious stuff either, though.

  Learning about media bias was HUGE when I was in school. It’s everywhere.

  I think you give them too much credit.
