Stupidity has existed probably since man came along. (It's only fair they
should have their enjoyment. ;)
We see what we want to see.
Fox will certainly influence some, and others will see through it and
develop because of the discovery of their lies.
But Fox didn't create it's audience, stupidity was already born and very
much alive.
That is: Fox is the chicken. But the eggs were already present.
Fox isn't the hell itself. The root of the problem is alas elsewhere. It's
in the society itself, and amongst the people. It is the system, and the
individuals.
And to pin-point Fox as THE ENEMY and the source of all evil is to make a
very very poor analysis.
