NBC Ignores Own Poll Showing Obama's Approval Rating at All-Time Low

NBC ignored its own poll Wednesday evening that had President Obama at an all-time low approval rating.

Obama received just 41 percent approval and 54 percent disapproval in the latest NBC News/Wall Street Journal poll, but NBC only reported the findings on Wednesday morning's Today show in a news brief. NBC ignored that ObamaCare's approval was also underwater.

Only 35 percent of respondents thought that ObamaCare was a "good idea," versus 49 percent deeming it a "bad idea."

The Today show ignored those numbers, but did report that Republicans held a slight advantage when people were asked which party they wanted to see control Congress in November.
