Lexis-Nexis Academic Universe

Answer to question 4: Does Academic Universe carry opinion polls ? I need to find the questions asked by the CBS News Poll regarding the President and Monica Lewinsky.

Public opinion polls are somewhat tricky to find using Academic Universe. First you have to know that there is a database produced by the Roper Center for Public Opinion Research included in Academic. (This source contains questions, with responses, asked of national samples by major commercial polling organizations in the United States. Time period is 1935 to the present but most questions were asked in recent years.) Secondly you have to know that the publication name for this database is "Public Opinion Online" and that this publication is in Wire Service Stories.

Choose: News, Wires

Topic: Clinton w/p Lewinsky

Keyword: publication(public opinion online) and CBS News Poll

Source Material: wire service stories

Date: previous 2 years
