The only danger that Fox news really plays is when the viewers of Fox start repeating the lies to the non-viewers of Fox, nobody tries to debunk them because they think the lies are so ridiculous that no one would actually believe them, and rumors and such get started.
Did you hear the one about Obama's thesis? Well, let me tell you, FoxNation says Obama wrote "The so-called Founders did not allow for economic freedom. While political freedom is supposedly a cornerstone of the document, the distribution of wealth is not even mentioned. While many believed that the new Constitution gave them liberty, it instead fitted them with the shackles of hypocrisy."

Can you believe that socialist crap? Sure you can - if you listen to Fox.
