re: #146 Hecuba’s daughter

That may be part; but I think ipsos in 117 and HW in 118 have the real reason: up to 40% of the public believes anything that RW media tell them. They dismiss anything from legitimate news sources as Fake News — even Fox news stories when the stories don’t correspond to what they are hearing from RW web sites or Hannity or fanatic RW radio.

I’ve seen people seriously say FNC is too liberal sometimes. They want a 21st century American Pravda.
