(T)he vast majority of our survey respondents have been conservatives. We are embarrassed we can't convince more liberals to fill out our survey. Could you provide us a link to Brains and Eggs to help provide a liberal balance? We also include questions about how people found out about Osama Bin Laden’s death, what sources they used to get further information and how they shared information about his death.
The survey is online at http://survey.utk.edu/mrIWeb/mrIWeb.dll?I.Project=SOURCES2011 for your perusal.
Our survey has been approved by the Internal Review Board at the University of Tennessee-Knoxville. As part of the permission process it is guaranteed that all submissions are anonymous and confidential. Any identifying information (i.e. IP address) will be deleted by the researchers upon receipt.
We all know that my regular right-tilted readers Matt Bramanti and Greg Aydt are going to see this and rush over to take the poll; why don't you do the same?

Perry, while it's sweet (weirdly so) that you're thinking of me, I haven't taken Johnson's poll, nor will I.
If he's specifically asking for left-leaning people to fill it out, he's clearly trying to weight the sample properly, and it looks like he has enough data from right-leaning people. My response would be a waste of my time and Johnson's.
I'm not sure how useful a poll with a politically-motivated "take this poll!" campaign behind it would be; I suspect it won't be as valid as we'd like, but maybe Johnson can suss out some insights.
Perry, you over-estimate yourself. I don't read your stuff all that often.
I also haven't seen anything about the poll until now, but I did go and take the survey at your urging.
Hook, line, and sinker. ;^)
