Study Confirms That Fox News Makes You Stupid
« on: December 16, 2010, 08:19:39 AM »
A new survey of American voters shows that Fox News viewers are significantly more misinformed than consumers of news from other sources.


December 15, 2010  Yet another study has been released proving that watching Fox News is detrimental to your intelligence. World Public Opinion, a project managed by the Program on International Policy Attitudes at the University of Maryland, conducted a survey of American voters that shows that Fox News viewers are significantly more misinformed than consumers of news from other sources. What’s more, the study shows that greater exposure to Fox News increases misinformation.

So the more you watch, the less you know. Or to be precise, the more you think you know that is actually false. This study corroborates a previous PIPA study that focused on the Iraq war with similar results. And there was an NBC/Wall Street Journal poll that demonstrated the break with reality on the part of Fox viewers with regard to health care.

That might explain some people. But, what is your excuse for being so stupid?

Harvard University has conducted a study which concluded that left wing, anti-Christian neo-liberals are misinformed, uneducated, partially mentally retarded, very unhappy and suffer from a disorder that makes it very difficult for them to stop complaining about everything for 5 minutes.[1]

It does not make you stupid to watch FOX NEWS but you they report the news with so much bias that its not really worth listening too.

so you cite a study specifically targeting FOX news as proof even though it found similar attributes for those that watched MSNBC, CNN?

hmmm specifically targeting one network....yea I think we can safely say this study is skewed but I would be interested to know what the findings would be if MSNBC was SPECIFICALLY targeted...
