Perhaps the most cherished prerogative of French intellectuals is the right to take a position, to have a public opinion on any and every matter. This power to pronounce judgement has crumbled somewhat in the electronic age before the pressures of the public opinion poll and the occasionally surreal media star syndrome, but generally intellectual and cultural leaders in France have retained highly visible and respected roles within national life.

We analyzed the quality of opinion poll coverage during the German Federal Election Campaigns 2005, 2009, 2013 and 2017 with a quantitative content analysis of the German quality newspapers Die Welt, Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung, Süddeutsche Zeitung and Frankfurter Rundschau. From the literature, we derived three indicators of high quality poll coverage: 1) Identification the source of the reported poll, 2) inclusion of the most important methodological information of these polls, and 3) correct interpretation of the poll results with regard to the margin of error. In line with previous research, the poll coverage lacked quality according to all three criteria. We conclude with a discussion of some simple remedies to improve the public opinion poll coverage.

A public opinion poll about urban forests was carried out from spring 2005 to winter 2005/2006. The distribution of questionnaires took place in all 14 regions of theCzechRepublic. The results from the public opinion poll are that most respondents would appreciate the establishment of new urban forests in their neighbourhood. The most common request was for mixed and light forest and the use of natural materials for recreational equipment and natural paths. More than a half of the respondents would use the opportunity to opine about establishing a new urban forest. Most of them would be willing to travel to the forest for up to 30 minutes to use the forest for recreation. Local people would be willing to participate in some forest management and maintenance activities.
