Following Campaign News
Columbia Journalism Review's Campaign Desk has a short quiz you can take to gauge your knowledge of recent campaign and political news.
I got all the celebrity questions right and most of the policy and economic questions wrong. Could it be the media is more interested in peddling and repeating celebrity stories than substantive ones --and that being repeatedly subjected to them causes us to remember the details? I don't know. On the other hand, had the questions asked about Kerry or Bush policies on crime or civil liberties issues instead of economic issues, I bet I would have aced it. (I did get the intelligence director question right.)
