The largest effect is that of Fox News: all else being equal, someone who watched only Fox News would be expected to answer just 1.04 domestic questions correctly — a figure which is significantly worse than if they had reported watching no media at all. On the other hand, if they listened only to NPR, they would be expected to answer 1.51 questions correctly; viewers of Sunday morning talk shows fare similarly well. And people watching only The Daily Show with Jon Stewart could answer about 1.42 questions correctly.

I'm at the bottom of the page showing the OT threads and I keep reading PapaG threads with about 1 reply, hours after each thread began. People can't keep up with all these little threads with your tiny thoughts, Papa. Try putting your links into larger threads, the ones people read.

That's no joke. Just the other day Fox and Friends did this. They spent the entire show spewing completely false accusations and never corrected themselves during the show, only immediately afterwards on twitter. That level of negligence and incompetence is really unacceptable. That's why their viewers are so ignorant when it comes to the truth. Hard to believe watching comedy central would make one more intelligent than watching a 24 hour "News" channel.
