A few thoughts.
I'm sure the CHRISTIAN RIGHT has a portion that is ignorant. Anybody who would trace their hand on a piece of paper and send it to Jimmy Swaggart with at $10 donation so they can be "saved" has GOT to be pretty ignorant. I would bet that E.D. was saying "the portion of the Christian right that is ignorant rather than "the Christian right is ignorant. Big difference.
Also, people who speak of FOX as being a news show by the right for the right are wrong and play into the lame stream media and the libs hands. FOX presents both sides and everything in between. Considering that TV news was totally left-wing before FOX came along that is a huge and wonderful thing from the conservative perspective. We never had "fair and balanced" before. Libs hate FOX because it does present the right's perspective and call it right wing because it dares to present the right's views as well as the left's. But a show that is "fair and balanced" is a news show that is credible. The left does not want "credible" they want a black out on the right wing view. Thus they call FOX a right wing or conservative news program which suggests that it is not credible. (And yes, they actually believe the old media is credible.)
When we act like FOX is supposed to be our (conservatives) news show, we play into their hand and lend credence to the idea that FOX is not credible.

Don't pull a skerry on me. I quoted it exactly as she said it. The IGNORANT CHRISTIAN RIGHT.
