Former President Barack Obama resurfaced on Friday and took a shot at Fox News viewers, saying theyre living on a different planet than people who consume mainstream media.
Obama made the remarks on the premiere of the new monthly Netflix series My next guest needs no introduction with David Letterman, which hit the streaming service on Friday morning. Early in the episode, Obama asked Letterman about his retirement but the veteran talk show host quickly let the former president know who was boss.
Now heres how this is gonna work. Im gonna ask you stuff, and then you respond to stuff, Letterman joked.
Letterman then asked Obama what he considers the more dangerous threat to a democracy, the president demeaning the press or a foreign power sabotaging the voting process. Both options are clearly jabs at President Trump and Obama answered without mentioning the current presidents name.
One of the biggest challenges we have to our democracy is the degree to which we dont share a common baseline of facts, Obama said. "If you watch Fox News, you are living on a different planet than you are if you are listening to NPR.

Yep.
If you watch FOX you are close to planet Reality.
If you listen to NPR you are close to Bizarro World.

Please Barry, Fox News is no better than CNN or MSNBC. Just like Republicans are no better than Democrats. We are all just being duped into fighting each other while the politicians consolidate their power. But by all means, lets keep arguing about whether Haiti is a shithole or if Trump banged a porn star 10 years ago.

Did Letterman ask him about Fox News or did he just volunteer his ignorant opinion?
