That's nothing to brag about.......many Americans don't think for themselves(are "intellectually challenged") and prefer news sources like The National Enquirer and Fox News......TRY the ONION NEWS......now that's as accurate as FOX NEWS!

Are you really employed by Media Matters? It seems you are cheering what they and their boss, George Soros has always hoped for. As I said somewhere the other evening that day they did the survey was the third day of the NCAA basketball tournament and many people were watching basketball, not cable news. Well, I guess you aren't a fan of college basketball like millions of us are.

I have seen yours and now you can see mine. I wonder if you can find any of the same people on them.

Tell me how many really informed people out of those 12 you found. I found two in mine that I thought were intelligent but just not well informed. Both were black women. I have never seen any people less informed than any of the white people on mine.

Fox News No Longer #1

Certainly NOT the most respected network either.

Guess the FOX viewers can't stop chasing their tails long enough to waste time watching that pathetic channel.

Good for CNN!

Do we really need to put up all the videos of voters from the election of 2008? Some of the dumbest bunnies I've ever seen on tape.

"Fox News" is an oxymoron.

Ahhh, c'mon. I was about the post the video of Peggy Joseph, standing in front of those cheesy greek columns, raving about free gas and Obama paying her rent.
