MSNBC and FOX News least informed, according to surveyThis just in: Huffington Post readers least informed on internet. Of course, the survey is bullshit because it assumes many liberal opinions as facts and those who dissent are classified as "misinformed". |

If I'm reading the results correctly, the most interesting thing in the whole study is that on every single question, a higher percentage of Republicans than Democrats got the correct answer.Every. Single. Question. Thanks for posting. |

Because Faux news viewers are less informed. MTV, BET, SyFy and Univision viewers KNOW they're being entertained. Fauxnews viewers *think* that pablum and propaganda is information. |

MSNBC viewers tune in to be entertained by the liberals. They know it isn't information. That's what Jon Stewart is for. |

Actually, I haven't watched MSNBC for over a year! Last time I saw anything on there, I was laughing my rear-end off, while Keith Olbermann was FINALLY fired from the channel! The way he was talking, you'd think it was the fall of Saigon! HA! |

That's a lot longer than I was ever able to put up with it ... I think maybe I watched it four times over all those years. Microsoft should never have gotten into the "news" business. :) |

If you draw that conclusion from the poll, then you must also agree the Democrats are more mis-informed than Republicans.The numbers don't lie. Every. Single. Question. |

Well ... with what passes for "journalism" these days, comes as no surprise that this country is full of voters with the intelligence of bowling balls about the political process. :(Kim Kardashian for Vice! :) |

I actually agree with the concept that people who get their news solely from biased sources are going to be less informed. Anyone who relies entirely on FOX or MSNBC isn't going to hear the other side of the story. You should at least listen to it, even if you don't accept it. |
