Hello friends. I recently finished listening to the audiobook version of Paul Krugman’s ‘The Conscience of a Liberal”. Firstly, I would like to say that audiobooks are the way forward. You can listen to them at the gym, while driving, or even while losing badly at Starcraft 2.

Anyway, the book contains many valuable insights into global economic theory and American politics, and I urge you all to snag a copy.

This picture has nothing to do with Fox. Except for the 'L'.

As many of you know I am not a fan of Fox News. They are blatantly biased in favour of the Republican Party, they openly manipulate the media narrative in order to mislead their viewers and when all else fails they just plain lie about things.

And since they’ve started promoting and assisting in the funding of a political organisation (the ironically named ‘Tea Party Movement’) they aren’t even journalists any more; they are propagandists.

Let’s face it, Fox News is an international laughing stock. They are the kind of ‘news’ station that gets cited as an example of how to do bad journalism. They would be completely ignorable if it wasn’t for one small detail: they are, without a doubt, the most popular and most influential American news station in existence.

It is for this reason that we must all continue to point out the mistakes, stupidities and outright lies of Fox News.

I’ve posted the above picture before.  But it’s important to post it again because I think that I am now in a position to offer one possible explanation for why this trend is occurring.

Some people have been trying to say that the data represented by the above graph are proof that Republicans are less intelligent than Democrats.

But this is not the case.  In my opinion Republicans aren’t less intelligent than Democrats, they’re simply less educated.
