Well, you are welcome to think whatever you want . 
I don't see where you have provided information to back up your claim  that "it was irresponsibly conducted" and I do not agree with it being first and foremost a poll. 
 As  the results have no legal or political weight  it has the effect of being a poll but it is not a poll per se so I cannot agree with you.
I have no idea what you  mean by "reporters are pressured to pump out reports without responsibly looking at all of the constitutional validity necessary to publish their information" in this context but I think we are talking past each other here anyway.
Thank you for being civil even though I disagree about 100% with your remarks here. Has value.
