This is f'ing EXCELLENT.

Should be forwarded to all the FOX Lunatics who think these overpaid actors/GOP sales weasels are the only ones giving them the TROOF!

If this doesn't lay out their strategy for all to see, I don't know what does.

(and half the audience are liberals obsessed with Fox News.)

O'Rielly is their top show and he pulls less than 1% of the US population in audience.

I thought they did. Guess the rent is not high enough in DC for these jerks to afford the move.

How Shepard Smith manages to get by without toeing the line I'll never know. Everyone else there is a mindless automaton.

... "we're fair and balanced."

I know it's laughable, but in their minds, they think the public will buy it. You know their viewers buy it.

Sadly, if it is not corrected the same rewards awaited each and everyone future generation.

I see now how they do it. Take a handful of easily remembered points and DRILL BABY DRILL them into the viewers minds. Repeat same process 365 days a year.

No debates, no pro/con. Everything pre-digested and ready for that water cooler diatribe to your co-workers the next morning. And no bothersome thinking required!

What a masterful propaganda machine.
