SUMMARY: Bill O'Reilly inaccurately quoted "a new Fox News poll [which] says 53 percent of Americans still don't understand the Iraq conflict." In fact, the poll did not address whether Americans understood the situation in Iraq, but whether recent speeches by President Bush had given them a better understanding of the situation in Iraq.
