Why is it that liberals call Fox News viewers ignorant, uninformed wackjobs?

Nice "Source" Here is a quote from the link YOU provided that lays to rest the question of journalistic integrity once and for all, "One key AlterNet focus in 2011 will be to challenge the obscenity of the trillion dollar American empire, with bases around the world and a military that costs as much as ALL of the rest of the countries in the world COMBINED." Troll FAIL.

The FOX News boss wants it that way. "From: Sammon, Bill To: 169 -SPECIAL REPORT; 036 -FOX. WHU; 054 -FNSunday; 030 -Root (FoxNews.Com); 050 -Senior Producers; 051 -Producers; 069 -Politics; 005 -Washington Cc: Clemente, Michael; Stack, John; Wallace, Jay; Smith, Sean Sent: Tue Dec 08 12:49:51 2009 Subject: Given the controversy over the veracity of climate change data... ...we should refrain from asserting that the planet has warmed (or cooled) in any given period without IMMEDIATELY pointing out that such theories are based upon data that critics have called into question.

It is not our place as journalists to assert such notions as facts, especially as this debate intensifies." So he likes to ignore facts. Nobody denies that climate change is happening - only what is causing it.

How about *this* little nugget from October... "From: Sammon, Bill Sent: Tuesday, October 27, 2009 8:23 AM To: 054 -FNSunday; 169 -SPECIAL REPORT; 069 -Politics; 030 -Root (FoxNews.Com); 036 -FOX. WHU; 050 -Senior Producers; 051 -Producers Subject: friendly reminder: let's not slip back into calling it the "public option" 1) Please use the term "government-run health insurance" or, when brevity is a concern, "government option," whenever possible. 2) When it is necessary to use the term "public option" (which is, after all, firmly ensconced in the nation's lexicon), use the qualifier "so-called," as in "the so-called public option." 3) Here's another way to phrase it: "The public option, which is the government-run plan." 4) When newsmakers and sources use the term "public option" in our stories, there's not a lot we can do about it, since quotes are of course sacrosanct."

All of this falls into "Cognitive Infiltration". Much like the conservative trolls who inhabit Yahoo, Fox feels that any lie, repeated often enough, will influence and change the public thought. And you know what?

It seems to actually be working... at least on the feeble.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
