One thing I find very interesting is how well their propaganda works on people. Because when my father and I discuss the issues - he is generally a supporter of liberal ideas. For instance, his views on health care generally lean towards the idea of universal healthcare - but if you actually say those two words together - he claims it's "socialism which leads to communism" because he's been programmed to say it from all his Fox exposure. When you actually watch a half hour of some Fox show - The Five, Hannity, whatever... it's amazing how text book the propaganda is and how prevalent. It's in everything they say and do. The dirty word for every day is "liberal" - any and every problem of the country leads directly back to "liberals" and the "democratic party" which they believe are one and the same. Harold Ford is on one of their shows and my Dad is convinced he's a flaming lefty. 😂

Precisely. That's significantly why I'm boycotting Fox. But, in truth, your comment is true of all of cable "news." Ain't?
