5. Of course we know that
Of course we know when FOX "News" was founded, but if they were around back then that would probably be pretty close to the truth on what people would see. FOX would be portraying peaceful protesters standing up for their rights as American citizens as terrorists, and fire hose wielding racists as heroes. Bill-O and Hannity would probably be on every night delivering hate speech that would encourage klansmen to murder blacks and sympathetic whites - all in code words of course.

6. Of course we know that too.
