Reagan adviser: Fox News ‘self-brainwashing’ Republicans into a radical fringe party

Conservatives did not used to be like this, they were never open minded but I do not remember them recoiling so violently from alternative views.

Ironically, it is the rash hysterical liberal reaction to the very existence of Fox News (see haxmutt's OP) that is the actual demonstration of abject intolerance to opposing views.
Be on the receiving end of that much misinformation and you begin to see them as the enemy. They certainly treat those who disagree with them as enemies. They exemplify every sin against truth that makes up bad journalism including the cardinal rule, sensationally telling people what they want to hear (otherwise known as blowing smoke up their ass).

U are a tool.

We are all on the receiving end of deliberate disinformation at the hands of the left wing main stream media constantly.

Fucking Stephanapolous would give a blow job to Shrillary and HE is considered a fair reporter?

Get the fuck outta heeeeeere. You are disconnected from reality.
I'm not the one jumping to the defense of a propaganda machine. TV news media is 100% fucked up. There is no bastion of truth to be found there. Quit watching that shit, it rots your brain.

You get your news from some idiot version of propaganda, you dipshit. And your brain is already rotted because you actually think about it and buy the liberal hogwash anyway.

Go back to DUh.

As I accurately and sagaciously noted before, you ARE outta touch with reality.

In the real world, both sides of the aisle have "abject intolerance to opposing views". You've been here long enough to know that for Christ sake.


SOME people are intolerant of any opposing opinion.

It is a rarity in conservative political discourse.

It is the orthodoxy of the modern American liberal.
 
Ex-Reagan adviser: Fox News is ‘self-brainwashing’ Republicans into a radical fringe party

In his paper “How Fox News Changed American Media and Political Dynamics” published earlier this month, Bartlett theorized that watching the network was essentially “self-brainwashing” for viewers, making them believe that the United States was a more conservative nation than it actually was. And so the Republican Party had responded by running radical conservatives that representative Fox News viewers, but not the true state of the electorate.

“Many conservatives live in a bubble where they watch only Fox News on television, they listen only to conservative talk radio — Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, many of the same people,” Bartlett told CNN’s Brian Stelter on Sunday. “When they go onto the Internet, they look at conservative websites like National Review, Newsmax, World Net Daily.”

Great line from the Simpsons - Fox News, Not Racist, but #1 with racists.


If they keep being so fringy and radical, they'll never hold majorities in the House or Senate...wait...what?
You mean when only half the people vote and GOP rating is down to 19%? Good luck on the next presidential election/

Five Months Into GOP Congress Approval Remains Low at 19
