Was this the one posted on Digg a few days ago? The one about U.S. politics that the average person got 50% on? I got 11/12 on that. I didn't get the talk show one.

Here's Your Score: You correctly answered 10 out of the 12 possible questions, which means you did better on the quiz than 83% of the general public.

What does these questions got to do with IQ?

EDIT: Right, 'news IQ'.

I did VERY poorly. But I did get some right.

i closed the browser after the first few questions when i realised it was just all about american politics. snore.

Here's Your Score: You correctly answered 12 of the 12 possible questions along with approximately 3% of the public. You did better than 97% of the general public.

fyi, the questions are pretty geared toward americans...

100%...thx...

yeah i forgot most people here aren't american. but i bet most non-americans here could score better than the average american.

lol non-americans...and ppl who score 97% on that test...

This is sad.

3. Since the start of military action in Iraq, about how many U.S. military personnel have been killed?

Percentage of all adults that knew the right answer (+/- 1000)? :: 28%

Fuck that, there was one question about international politics, the rest was uninteresting American politics.

I got to the 'Which famous celebrity endorsed Obama, was it dr. Phil or Oprah' and my mouse whooshed over to that little red X at top speed.
