HEADLINES, WE GOT HEADLINES

Two themes I've returned to repeatedly are the importance of the narrative frame, and the idea that the media will cherry pick which poll results to feature -- making it imperative that you take the few minutes to go over the poll results yourself.

Combine those two themes, and you get a variety of possible headlines for a poll analysis story. And when you do that, maybe you get some insight into the outlet's vision of the world.
