Just to be clear, I didn't say anything about intelligence. Just that FOX viewers are more poorly informed than people who watch no news at all. Not a reflection of intelligence. If anything, I would say FOX deliberately tries to manipulate people into believing untruths. I know some intelligent people who watch FOX, with the unfortunate consequence that a lot of their information is faulty. Doesn't mean they aren't intelligent.

Okay, I likened less informed being less intelligent.

FOX is politically bias with their conservative right leaning politics.
I do not believe FOX deliberately tries to manipulate people into believing untruths.
FOX has politically left leaning people on their payroll and contributors to argue
their point of view, more so than CNN or MSNBC.
