Right wing fail
US News • Views: 36,775

Right wing media and blogs have been ranting in unison for weeks about Occupy Wall Street, pulling out every dishonest smear tactic in the book and doing their best to discredit and destroy the movement.

But it’s not working: Poll: 43 percent agree with views of ‘Occupy Wall Street’.

Young and left-leaning Americans were more likely to agree with the movement than were their older and more conservative counterparts. Half of Americans ages 18-29 say they agree with the movement; just one in three Americans age 65 or older say the same. And two thirds of liberals say they agree with “Occupy Wall Street” compared with just one in four conservatives.

Americans with at least some college education are more likely to agree with the movement than those with less education. Nearly half of those with at least some college education say they agree with “Occupy Wall Street”; among those who did not attend college, that figure drops to 37 percent.
