So repeating a falsehood over and over leads some people to believe it?

I am shocked! SHOCKED I say!
Allowing Fox News viewers to cast votes is the biggest problem.

No, it is much scarier than that. Repeating the falsehood over and over leads MOST people to believe it, by astronomical margins. Not only that, the bigger the lie, the easier the public will believe it. Throw in a couple of politicians, and voila!

Only Fox viewers are gullible enough to buy the FOX LIE MACHINE. Old, white and afraid is no way to live.

So much for the education in this country when a few wacko’s can create there own fanasty/reality and have that many lemmons freely agreeing to being that stupid.
Just wow!!!
The vast majority of people who do listen or watch Faux news are on the lower end of the educational ladder. That’s the way Faux news and the other extreme right wingnut sites love it. They can feed them all of their conspiracy theories and lies, put a little bagger sugar on it and spoonfeed their toadys all day long.
Scare and snare and fear and smear work very well for all the chicken littles who are in the Fox coop.
It’s not that they voted because of the continuous stream of fear pumped out at them about Ebola and terrorism that kills me. Its the fact that none of them seem to have noticed how both of those things suddenly vanished from Fox right after the election, much less realized they’re being manipulated.

Sorry, maybe I shouldn’t piss on the parade, but is there an award somewhere for most incongruent headline? According to the story, this is the representation of viewers of non-Fox news sources:
CNN - more than 1/3
Broadcast news - more than 1/4
Public media - more than 1/4
Does this mean a preponderance of fox viewers are misinformed? Absolutely. A majority? Sure. “Pretty much just Fox viewers?” Are you kidding me?
Oh, wait, I see the discussion headline has been changed. Still need to change on the main page.
fox viewer are dumb as a bag of rocks. and much less fun.
These stories vanished from Fox because Republicans won the election, and those problems are now solved! They’re not issues anymore because Republicans fixed them. Relax. Stay calm. Republicans control the government now. We’ll inform you of everything you need to worry about.

Was standing in line to vote in Utah last week; an old white guy in line in front of us wasn’t allowed to vote for some reason. “I lived here all my life! I voted in the last two elections!” They said, well, sorry.
