Nothing is ever an exact correspondence, of course, but according to this survey the best predictor of how you feel about immigration is whether you watch Fox News, broadcast network news, or CNN. This correlation is even stronger than political affiliation (although obviously more Republicans watch Fox News, not all of them do. And not everyone who watches Fox News is a Republican. Some are people stuck in bars or airports.
What is perhaps surprising is that CNN watchers are most sympathetic to immigrants, rather than those who primarily watch broadcast network news. The poll does not seem to have included MSNBC watchers, which may be more a reflection of MSNBC's rating not providing a statistically valid sample.
Yes, I'm snarky this morning.
