Juha, this is very much to the point. There is a nationwide phenomenon parallel to this. More people do their "news" consumption at Fox than any other single source. Not long ago a survey questioned people about their knowledge of what in my day was called Current Events in elementary school. Consumers of Fox were less knowledgeable than people who did not regularly consume any news media at all. The Fox viewers "knew" all about everything, but most of what they knew wasn't so.
