    ^^ This crap gets posted and reposted like clockwork every six months it seems. It has been pointed out that the younger demographic does not watch cable news at all. In fact the dominant cable news demographic is 55+ and mainly white males so it is no surprise that Fox rules.

    Younger people are much more tech savvy and overwhelmingly progressive they watch Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert and read the NYT primarily.

    Fox News Lie Roulette..... 40 Fox lies packed into a Vine....

    blob:https%3A//vine.co/b1260919-4859...8-957712f5c17a

    Just in case it doesn't display properly, they're all annotated here:

    http://www.politifact.com/punditfact...ds-daily-show/

    And the actually page is here:

    http://www.dailydot.com/politics/50-...ily-show-vine/

    The only possible reason RPeter could possibly be right saying that they are the "most trusted network" is that more people watch them and they're all as thick as shit.

    Just quoting the poll, you seem to throw around people being thicker than shit quite often, I would suggest a trip to the mirror.

    You don't need fact checking on the above. Anyone with a half a wit knows what has been stated there are all over the top lies.

    As a matter of fact, it is downright comical. Hard to believe even the people who said this shit are that stupid.
