Flemington, NJ, July 31, 2007 – Results from a new national focus group conducted among 299 Americans indicated that an overwhelming majority (83%) agree with NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell’s decision to ban Atlanta Falcons’ Quarterback Michael Vick from training camp.
The communications research study was conducted by HCD Research during July 30-31, using its mediacurves.com web site, to obtain Americans’ views on comments made by Dr. R.L. White, president of the Atlanta chapter of the NAACP, regarding the charges against Michael Vick for running an illegal dog fighting operation.
While viewing the video comments of Dr. White, participants were asked to indicate their levels of agreement. The responses were recorded in quarter-second intervals and reported in the form of curves. To view agreement curves and detailed results of the study, go to: www.mediacurves.com
