That Fox News is huge part of it. How many years has that been around? Over Ten years? Watching that brain washing crap, will begin to warp you after a while. There was a DU post about someone's grandfather who had turned into a hater, after years of watching FOX NEWS and listening to people like Michael Savage and Rush Limbaugh.

With Right wing radio dominating the country, and Fox News almost every where, its starting to take its toll on Americans who used to be able to think for themselves.

Fox News has been pushing the NO GO ZONES, for Paris, who's to say that Chinatowns will be the next official Fox News NO GO ZONE.
