I haven't used a clip from the Daily Show or any Viacom material in my videos for almost six months, but, last week, when Matt Groening, creator of "The Simpsons," appeared on the Daily Show, he revealed information of such public interest about how Fox News assesses its own viewers, I had to make this video.

The Pew Research Center survey of public knowledge of current affairs to which I refer in my video is available at: http://people-press.org/reports/display.php3?ReportID=319

Also, the Daily Show interview with Matt Groening from which I fairly used a short clip in my video is available in full on the Comedy Central website at: http://www.thedailyshow.com/video/index.jhtml?videoId=90145&title=matt-gr...

Finally, more information about the March 2003 episode of "The Simpsons," titled "Mr. Spritz Goes to Washington," from which I fairly used a short clip in my video is available at: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0701185/
