The O’Reilly Factor, of whom 51 percent made it into the high knowledge group. That made it equal to National Public Radio
Rush Limbaugh's show also made it to the 50-54% high knowledge category as well. And liberals say Limbaugh listeners are the most misinformed

Have Politifact rebutted the FOX lies that Stewart posted on his show last night, the Fox
lies that Politifact has on their website? NO they have not!

Yeah, we been over this before. Some of these "surveys" are just liberal hackery based on answers being provided by interested parties.

I remember reading one of them that said Fox viewers were wrong about the "stimulus" creating jobs, but the source of the official answer was the Obama Administration.

Hardly something to brag about:

Fox isn’t last on the list, although it’s close -- 35 percent of Fox viewers earned a high knowledge rating, which was tied with local television news and was one point ahead of the network morning shows.
PolitiFact | Jon Stewart says those who watch Fox News are the "most consistently misinformed media viewers"

That's Politifact's take on Stuart's claim.

The horse sh*t surveys are another matter altogether.

Basically, liberal hack squads attempting to pass themselves off as non-liberal hack squads have done some polls in which questions were asked to measure viewer knowledge about current news stories. The officially correct answers were provided by interested parties and based on assumptions made by other interested parties. In other words, opinions.

Had you actually read the Politifact write-up?

I think you would have avoided this topic.

It doesn't do much to enhance your side of the coin... LOL!!!

Still, within this little answer here you should find the time to say that this thread is an epic FAIL.... Seeing as you are now attempting to debunk the source that apparently "shredded John Stewart's claim", which we can see it didn't....

This is funny!!
