Why Do Folks Continue To Trust Fox “news”?

During the 2008 campaign a Fox affiliate somewhere in the midwest sent a reporter and a cameraman to a small cafe- there were about 20 customers present, and the Fox reporter went around and asked every single customer for whom they were going to vote. Without a single exception, the answer was “Obama”. After which the reporter looked into the camera, and said, “Well Ted, as you can see, it’s about evenly divided.” How he managed to say this with a straight face is beyond me. This is the “fair & balanced” reporting Fox tries to claim. Really….. what DOES it take for people to realize how bad Fox is?

    And you’ve never gagged at the flagrant slant of an MSNBC report? I like Fox, I like Lou Dobbs. Some of his chalkboard presentations are very witty.

    Well, he probably knew he could get away with it since their viewers are not the type to think for themselves.
    A recent University of Maryland study concluded that “Fox viewers are the most misinformed in the country.”
    Not a surprise to anyone with a working brain, huh?
