Questions: What point does the podcast end on with regards to polling and the 2016 election? Pollsters did a terrible job of predicting the 2016 election outcome and media organizations should put less trust in pollsters' work and results There is too much emphasis on policy issues in media coverage of elections and not enough focus on the horse race aspect of who is winning the campaign The broad consensus of news organizations that Clinton had the election locked up was not at all what the polls were saying in 2016 Pollsters in 2016 relied too heavily on self-selected Internet-only samples of likely voters, which impacted the accuracy of their results

The answer is: The broad consensus of news organizations that Clinton had the election locked up was not at all what the polls were saying in 2016.

Explanation for each option:

1. Pollsters did a terrible job of predicting the 2016 election outcome and media organizations should put less trust in pollsters' work and results: This option suggests a general distrust in pollsters' abilities, but it doesn't specifically address the point made in the podcast about the consensus among news organizations.

2. There is too much emphasis on policy issues in media coverage of elections and not enough focus on the horse race aspect of who is winning the campaign: This option discusses media coverage priorities but does not directly relate to the accuracy or interpretation of polling data in the 2016 election.

3. The broad consensus of news organizations that Clinton had the election locked up was not at all what the polls were saying in 2016: This option correctly identifies the disconnect between the media's portrayal of the election outcome as a certainty for Clinton and what the polls were actually indicating, which is a key point often discussed in analyses of the 2016 election.

4. Pollsters in 2016 relied too heavily on self-selected Internet-only samples of likely voters, which impacted the accuracy of their results: While this option addresses a methodological issue with polling, it does not capture the main point about the media's interpretation of polling data in the 2016 election.
