Fox News Viewers Wrong on Everything

Here's some predictable, but fun research about how disconnected with reality Fox News viewers are. According to the Program on International Policy Attitudes, Fox News viewers are dumbstupids. Specifically, they believe:

* most economists estimate the stimulus caused job losses (12 points more likely)

* most economists have estimated the health care law will worsen the deficit (31 points)

* the economy is getting worse (26 points)

* most scientists do not agree that climate change is occurring (30 points)

* the stimulus legislation did not include any tax cuts (14 points)

* their own income taxes have gone up (14 points)

* the auto bailout only occurred under Obama (13 points)

* when TARP came up for a vote most Republicans opposed it (12 points)

* and that it is not clear that Obama was born in the United States (31 points)
