Do people actually take Fox seriously?

[ShenandoahAspen]

I turned to Fox Snooze just for a few seconds, and some IDIOT was on there saying how McCain was right on the "surge" and Obama and Biden were wrong. :eyes: I immediately turned it back to MSNBC. Gah. Do people actually take these idiots seriously, and if so, WHY???

1. They have the proverbial "Oh Crap" look on their faces.

[GreenPartyVoter]

2. Oh, I know people who religiously watch FAUX and dismiss all the

other clearly RW-biased M$M as liberal! Oy! :eyes:

[Barack_America]

3. Enough to shoot up churches, apparently.

:(

[IsItJustMe]

4. Afraid so. Insanity runs deep in this country.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

5. Sadly, yes.

That's where you get those so-called "low information voters," as well as people who want to get their own prejudices reinforced.

[Top Cat]

6. HELL NO!

[AirmensMom]

7. Unfortunately, they do.

Fox is very popular where I live. People don't have a clue.

[billyoc]

Do they take professional wrestling seriously? Horoscopes? American Idol?

You damn right they do. I can't speak as to why, though. :shrug:

13. They outgrow Santa Claus, so there's always hope. nt

8. Only if...

...they are sheeple!

Was that a baaaaaaaaaaad remark? :evilgrin:

9. Only if...

10. Yup, they do.

I'm related to some of them and they believe wholeheartedly everything that the FOX News talking heads tell them. There's no getting through to the real devotees.

[valerief]

11. Yes. There are a lot of stupid people trained not to question

shows with fancy graphics.

[mokawanis]

12. Lots of people do

Low- and no-information voters do, people unwilling to face objective truths and who instead reach for the false comfort of Faux.

14. It may have been the only thing he's done right in 20 years

They have to find credit for something - even if the surge wouldn't have been necessary if he hadn't supported Bush's FAILED war in Iraq based on LIES and FAKE INTELLIGENCE.

There should have been no need for a "surge".

But you should have know this is what they'd be saying - why the FUCK did you feel it necessary to post it here and kick us in the teeth with it?

[hisownpetard]

15. Very. Most people who watch Fox, watch Fox ONLY.

[C_U_L8R]

16. Now go disinfect that clicker finger at once !!

[MaryEllen9399]

17. I know this is mean but I have to say this

If the low information voters (fox viewers) vote for McDubya for the stupidest reasons, they deserve everything they get.

[Lucky 13]

18. Everything my mother knows about politics comes from Hannity & Colmes

Pepper in a little Limbaugh, add a little Focus on the Family...

... it's a first class recipe for insanity.


Jebus, save me from your followers.

[Just-plain-Kathy]

19. I have a cousin who takes them seriously.

..I tune in every once in a while to see how transparent they are. ...Today a FOX news weatherman was talking about a possible hurricane hit down south; he said at least three times that McCain was being made aware (or something like that) of the storm. I just remember thinking, God, they're really trying to make it seem like McCain is on top of things.

FOX told us to vote for Bush, should we really listen to them when they tell us to vote for McCain?

[threadkillaz]

20. Depends on how many Dems they have on TV during Twins City

Fair and balanced ya know.

21. No one with half a brain.
