They Like US #
April 2nd, 2008 | In Worth Knowing
Get it? US as in “we Americans” and as in United States. Anyway… the BBC — who recently redesigned — are reporting that around the world opinions of America are less bad than they recently were. Hardly a vote of confidence — still more people think we’re bad than good — but a step in the right direction.
The average percentage of people saying that the US has a positive influence has risen to 35% from 31% a year ago, according to the survey.
Those saying the US has a negative influence fell five percentage points to 47%.
