On some questions, people who get their TV news primarily from Fox News or CNN are even further apart than Republicans and Democrats, with viewers of the other big TV networks somewhere in between.

Why exactly would you project the results of this poll onto Fox viewers?

I would suggest that "Fox News and CNN Viewers hold different Views on Immigration" would have been most relevant choice.

Wow, what a bombshell.

Against illegal immigration? Check.

You guys crack me up. As if there is anyone "for" illegal immigration. Typical straw man argument that we are all learning to ignore.

McCary immigrated to the U.S. from China, legally, when she was 14, and is now a U.S. citizen. She said she rejected CNN as "fake news" after the 2016 election. Now McCary watches Fox News because she says that it's "unbiased" and that its coverage tends to match her views about undocumented immigrants.
"They're taking resources. They're taking jobs. And they're not contributing back to the community," McCary said.
The jokes write themselves.

then why are liberals continually ignoring the difference between legal and illegal immigration? why is it that when conservatives openly oppose illegal immigration do liberals slam us for hating immigrants?
