The OP was only stating facts. Who would have thought that would be a hot button! Apparently, Fox News viewers have a problem with facts.

Facts? There were no facts in there, just opinion.

When will the Left admit defeat in their War on Fox?

No, the only one whining is you. FOX viewers knowing less than someone who watches real news is not hating on FOX, it is simply stating a fact. And to those who don't watch FOX, we know those who do are the tip of the spear of the Dumbing Down of America

That happened in 2008...a FACT. No amount of truth from Fox could prevent the disaster from happening.

Probably, I think Rupert started in England in the tabloid business before starting his propaganda network in the U.S.

They actually know less then people who don't watch news programs at all.



Some News Leaves People Knowing Less

Kind of sad for Fox News
I don't want to hurt your feelings but I think that the most heavily left leaning state in the country is probably New Jersey. An old Army buddy who lives in a central part of New Jersey says he sees so few non-Democrats in a day that he is afraid to talk about politics except in his daily columns in the local news paper.

I always make sure I watch Face the Nation and then Fox News Sunday in order to get the heavy left lean from Schieffer and the good job done by the people at Fox. Yes, if they are discussing anything there is at least one lefty and one of the other kind. I just don't see the kind of thing that so many of you lefties claim they don't do. When they have their panel talk they have two strong right handers, Juan Williams who is a strong Democrat and some female who leans a bit left.

I am sure that those who wrote against Fox here don't watch that show or they would have to keep their mouths shut.

You do realize that the location of Fairleigh-Dickinson must have something to do with them using New Jerseyians as their authorities, I hope.

I agree. There are no facts in Fox News, only biased opinions.

You are totally right about Fox News. There are no facts there.

The two reviewed academic research papers in the OP already said that though, so you are being redundant.

There was no facts in the OP and the "poll" has been debunked to no end, over, and over, and over..

And the two had so many errors in their "research" paper, that they actually proved just the opposite. See the video above so you can stop embarassing yourself by "knowing less".
