Searching for the GOP's silver lining, ABC's Gibson misrepresented his own network's poll

SUMMARY: ABC News' Charles Gibson claimed that a poll's finding that "the Foley scandal is dwarfed by other concerns," such as the Iraq war, terrorism, and the economy, "would seem to be good news for Republicans." In fact, the poll also found that, by significant margins, more Americans trust Democrats over Republicans to handle the Iraq war, terrorism, and the economy.
