Business Insider

I know I'm shocked.

"Researchers asked 1,185 random nationwide respondents what news sources they had consumed in the past week and then asked them questions about events in the U.S. and abroad."

Personally I’d rather be less informed than misinformed.

I’m assuming they mean Fox viewers miss out on most of the MSM agitprop, and that’s a given.

This article is from 2012 and there has been a fairly extensive literature on why it is a dubious study

How did you even find it? Why are you reading/looking up articles that are more than 6 years old?

Continuing to tell huge portions of the voting public they are stupid is a surefire strategy to WIN. Hope it keeps up hard.

First, you are a twat. You knew that though.

Second...

Cassino concluded that "the most popular of the national media sources—Fox, CNN , MSNBC—seem to be the least informative."


It would seem that all the major Fake News Networks have a very large problem. It appears that shilling for one side is a bad way to present the news.

Now, where is that objective news channel we all need?

Desperation.

Scours the web for ANYthing negative he can possibly find, no matter how relevant, then rushes his happy arse here to post it in glee, only to get his clock cleaned.

Every. Day.

Methinks the ol' sport has a masochistic streak in him.

Thus, those who watched no news—answering questions by guessing or relying on existing knowledge—fared much better than those who watched the most popular 24-hour cable news network (i.e. Fox News).


I don't believe that for one nanosecond.
