Fox News: Americans View Clinton NK Trip Favorably
August 20, 2009
Nearly four in five Americans agreed, in a Fox News poll released last week, that former President Bill Clinton’s trip to North Korea—during which he successfully lobbied for the release of jailed journalists Euna Lee and Laura Ling—will not encourage the kidnapping of more Americans.
But Americans doubted whether Clinton’s private rescue mission would actually improve U.S./North Korea relations.
The Fox News/Opinion Dynamics poll was conducted Aug. 11-13, while Clinton was reportedly recuperating from his two-day mission to Pyongyang by throwing himself a 63rd birthday party at a pricey Las Vegas Strip steakhouse.
