Fox News, "Number 1 trusted news source"

Fox is the most trusted news source, because Liberals don't trust any of them and 75% of Republicans pick Fox. Funny how statistics can slide by you.



How can you blame the business leaders for their success in framing the minds of their captive audience? The greatest success is selling the belief that they are "fair and balanced", the mantra of "democracy", "freedom", many are not against these ideas, except, as we are told, the terrorists, the "socialists", the progressives, the "fundamentalist Islamists", Al Gore and the "environmentalist wackos". If one can't see through the propaganda of Fox News there is no going further, one is floating in the miasmal ether of almost-thought, like a ghost never grasping reality, tormented by disconnect and illogical conclusions, one can only ultimately throw one's arms up in surrender to the inconclusiveness.

See if you can stand this debate/lecture with Zizek and Cornell West:
