[The Great RJ]

I have the same cultural divide in my home. My wife insists that Fox News is only watched by knuckle dragging red necks who must have their news dumbed down and presenting a single point of view. Her favored news sources are NPR and CNN which in my view are just propaganda arms of the Obama administration which slavishly regurgitate the latest talking points. Needless to say we do not often have political discussions.

The liberal's explanation of why Fox News attracts a bigger audience than the other networks combined fits their world view that the vast majority of Americans are too dumb to make the "right"decisions in their lives and must have liberal elites and big government make these decisions for them.

Tell your dear wife that the knuckle draggers don’t watch fox - too liberal!!!

We knuckle draggers don’t watch TV, it’s all just too much vomit in a plunger.

What is a news program - a couple few facts spewed over a half hour, repeated ad nauseum until the next day. People, life goes on outside!

Problem is, having a spouse with those viewpoints, it’s not just a simple political disagreement, it’s basic issues of right and wrong.

How long have you been married?

Although my wife was never a staunch liberal, her views moved toward mine over time. She is now more conservative than me in some ways.

Look at the biggest rating markets for Fox News. Are NYC, Boston, Chicago and LA knuckle-dragger territory? BTW, there are many conservatives and libertarians in my home of NYC. We are not so demonstrative in public because the lefties here are both extreme in their progressive lunacy and obnoxious in their self-certainty...

She must think highly of THE GREAT RJ. How does this work in the real world.
