But then they also end up reinforcing those views. It's a bigotry feedback loop. They also enjoy hearing about "illegal immigration", "the gay agenda", and how to control everyone's vaginas.

I know they do have some Black people on as commentators and stuff, but a lot of them seem kind of phony to me, like all the Fox commentators, they just seem to read whatever they are told and then collect the paycheck.
