It is an establishment dictatorship, but you are right that the media (including Fox) plays a crucial role. But what makes their job so easy are the establishment Republicans. If the Republicans behaved like a real opposition party, they could do a more effective job countering the spin (especially since so much of it is blatantly false).

Establishment Republicans are the real, underlying problem. Opposing them at every turn (even if it means fewer "R"s and more "D"s) is a pre-requisite for any meaningful opposition to the transformation of America.
