Help -60% ofFox watcher think that Iraq respondsible for 9/11

Does someone have this study bookmarked? I got this as part of an e-mail and if it is a real study I would use it in a letter to the editor.
"But, from what I remember, it showed that 60% of the people who watch Fox News believe that Saddam was involved in the September 11th attacks, while only 12% of those who got their news from Public Radio and Television believed that."

My son's 9th grade history teacher believes that Iraq was respondsible for 9/11. I find that revolting.

4. Here is an article in yesterdays Wash Post...

This article deals with the polls that were taken. It's tragic that so many people have been mislead by this admin. Hopefully, your childs teacher will see the light, however, so people don't want to believe anything other than whats on fox or rush.

6. Even after Bush's little acknowledgement that Iraq had no

connection to 9-11, he continues to play the same word association game that caused the misconception in the first place. His whole administration continues to say "remember 9-11" when they talk about Iraq.
