Kurt Busch ranks eighth among America's Most Disliked Athletes
Forbes released its 2013 list of America's Most Disliked Athletes and NASCAR Sprint Cup Series driver Kurt Busch comes in at No. 8.
The latest public surveys from Nielsen/E-Poll show Manti Te’o and Lance Armstrong in a virtual dead heat for the dubious title of America’s most disliked athlete (though we give the nod to Armstrong based on higher name recognition, which gives his score a bit more heft). Each appeals to just 15% of the public, according to Nielsen’s polling, which it conducts on a rolling basis with the help of E-Poll, an Encino, Calif.-based market research firm.
