50% of the US population will believe whatever the boob tube tells them.
I am not being facetious.
No you're not unfortunately. I respond on other forums and cannot believe what I read. I don't know if they're trolling me, if they're paid Chinese/Russian agents or if they really believe what they are posting. They swallow whatever CNN and Stephen Colbert emits apparently. It's almost unbelievable.
I bet you it’s more than that. I bet you it’s closer to 75%.
I know one woman, not particularly bright, but has a very smart daughter. Mom thinks that everything on the news is true, because, according to her, “they can’t say it on TV if it isn’t.” Her poor daughter tries to talk sense into her mom, but it’s hard no there.
Yep, or social media. Death by Instagram.
