Comparison of Poll Results Between Readers of Country Living Magazine and
Ebony Magazine-Fiction!
Summary of the eRumor: The alleged results of polling
between the readers of Country Living and Ebony magazines that asked what
people feared most. The eRumor claims that the mostly white readers
of Country Living feared nuclear war, terrorist attack, a child or
spouse dying of a terminal illness, and themselves dying of a terminal
illness. The mostly black readers of Ebony were said to be
fearful of ghosts, dogs, and registered mail.
The Truth: This forwarded email is fiction and tasteless
racial humor.
Ebony magazine confirmed for TruthOrFiction.com that such a poll was never
conducted.
