Some News Leaves People Knowing Less

According to the latest results from Fairleigh Dickinson University’s PublicMind Poll, released Nov. 21, 2011, some news sources make us less likely to know what’s going on in the world. In the most recent study, the poll asked New Jerseyans about current events at home and abroad, and from what sources – if any – they get their information. The conclusion:
Sunday morning news shows do the most to help people learn about current events,
while some outlets, especially Fox News, lead people to be even less informed than
those who they don’t watch any news at all. "Jon Stewart has not spent a lot of time on some of these issues," said Cassino. "But the results show that when he does talk about something, his viewers pick up a lot more information than they would from other news sources."

Just another proof that FOX is only a propaganda machine that distorts the news, or avoids issues they do not like. The dumbing of America is happening now, live on TV.
