We often get upset at Fox News viewers for the alternate state of reality they generally live in. We shouldn’t be. It is our civic duty to first understand how it is possible for them to see the world so differently than those who accept information from various sources.
The video below is a classic example of how Fox News encourages one to allow themselves to be willfully ignorant. This is not restricted to conservative right-wing people, but to us all. To be clear, many Americans do very little reading of consequence and get most of their information from the mainstream broadcast media or the right-wing broadcast media like Fox News.
one thing that might help is the recognize those who know those in the gov't loop those who have trhe facts in hand are much more a reliable source of info and direction then Fox idiots sitting on a couch repeating republican talking points and Obama bashing.  they keep feeding their base that there are no plans and that they should be aware if there were but my friends if you are aware of plans to deal with ISIS they would be too making any plan null and void knowing this republicans would attack Pres. for doing what they suggest.  this is republican plan no plan try and shame this admin into revealing theirs and then play the we are not safe weak leader card.
