My job has me working in people's homes for lengthy service calls each day. If CNN or MSNBC is on, it's on in the background, and people are going about their lives. If Fox is on (and it's on in a great many western PA homes), then at least one person will be sitting motionless in a chair and sucking down the propaganda for hours on end.
