1. He's right. (Even though it's hard not to get pissed at Fox.) Fox is geared toward people too crazy

2. Have said that many times, that the "respectable" MSM is more dangerous than Fox in many ways

At least most people outside of the brownshirt true believers , know what Fox is, but a large number of these same people believe what they hear on the corporate propaganda networks and CNN ,and equally as important, as Mr.Unger points out, it's what they DON'T tell you that's so dangerous to our survival as an informed democracy ( redundant--if the population is not accurately informed, it can not possibly survive as a democracy, which is quite obviously, the whole idea of the dumbing down of mainstream "journalism").
