You can still be infected with left-wing viewpoints via contagion through talk radio, blog pieces, online news articles, blogs, and forum postings.

Well, I don’t listen to the radio, even talk radio, don’t read blogs or online news articles. I get my info from FR and you are right that it is crawling with sleeper trolls but they usually don’t last long.
However, I have found one or two recently, with old sign on dates that I think aren’t who they say they are and are trying to divide conservatives and smear them. This vitriol is directed at individual freepers though, rather than a candidate, at least what I have seen in the past few days. I will see what develops with them and who they start attacking next.
If you read at FR, then you're reading blog posts and articles from the MSM all the time; ergo, you're at risk of inadvertently consuming left-wing talking points. We're inundated with liberal views everywhere we turn, and much of it is insidiously subliminal.
What's especially harmful, is when posters who claim to be conservatives begin parroting those left-wing talking points in overt fashion on the forum. It's all too easy for others to fall for, when they believe it's coming from one of their own.
