I was inspired by the polling question posed by Fox News:

Who is Usama Rooting For?

Who does Usama bin Laden want to be the next president? More people think the terrorist leader wants Obama to win (30 percent) than think he wants Clinton (22 percent) or McCain (10 percent). Another 18 percent says it doesn’t matter to bin Laden and 20 percent are unsure.

So I ran a quick poll of my fellow Americans (mostly friends of mine, making my methods only slightly less scientific than Fox's), asking them a similar question:

Which network would Hitler watch?

The results: 9 out of 10 answered, without hesitation: "Fox News!"
(The general consensus was that it would most appeal to his taste for fine propaganda.) Another .5 percent answered "CNN," while .2% tabbed MSNBC as der Fuhrer's fave. One of the respondents noted that Hitler never watched television, but we ignored him.

1. In his pre-delusional days, Hitler might actually have wanted to know what was really going on.
By the last days in the bunker, he'd have been prime Fox viewer material, though. He'd probably have done live hits from below on how well the raggedy children's army was protecting the Fatherland.
