One bias in media coverage is the tendency to treat the latest conservative culture nonsense as a winner for them. Even the headline admits it: Poll Surprise.
On the question “Who better represents America?,” the split between 42% for Bad Bunny versus 39% for Trump had the performer ahead by three points — and left 20% who answered “not sure,” making it a closer call between those two than it was in the lopsided contest between the Seahawks and Patriots.
Asked for their overall opinion of Bad Bunny, 43% of those polled said they had a favorable take on the artist, while 36% said it was unfavorable.
There was a similar result when those surveyed were asked whether they approved or disapproved of Bad Bunny as the halftime pick. The yay vote was 44%, while 35% disapproved of the NFL’s choice.
