Oh Fox, again? ❌

Is it because fox disagrees with your views or...What?

No. It's that they create intentionally misleading graphs like that.

Yup. They switch the axis to make it seem like enrollment is going down when its actually going up.

Because CNN told you it was going up?

No, retard, because the numbers on the side of the graph go from 4,000,000 to 8, 000,000. Except reversed.

But this is a graph that fox news blatantly made up, as ares said. Show me the actual graph.

Here is one of my favorites.

Why focus on fox news(not that I like it)? I could show you misleading stats/polls/graphs from cnn and msnbc as well. At least be consistent.

Uh, where did I say that. I said it was "intentionally misleading" as they flipped the axis.

If you have no love for Fox stop being a defensive little turd over it. I posted it because I saw it on tumblr. If I see misleading CNN graphs I'll post them too.

Nobody's being defensive, I'm simply asking for an accurate graph.

I don't even know what the Affordable Care Act is, nor do I care.

Read ALL of it. Twice.

As I said "they create intentionally misleading graphs". That doesn't mean they made up the data.

If they'd made up the data they'd have made up data they actually liked. That they're trying to obfuscate it actually is pretty strong evidence for its accuracy.

Nobody said anything about the data.

"They MUST be hiding something so the data must represent the opposite" is not pretty strong evidence. What if actual real data (if anyone can find it" shows that signups have remained at a constant pace, neither really increasing or decreasing?

You most certainly were talking about the data (enrollment going up or down).
