It is my opinion that the prevailing “truth” here is that if FOX has the biggest audience, then they must be stupid. That smart people would not watch FOX News..

I think you’ve rather got that backwards. FOX sends out a lot of disinformation, and therefore people who watch FOX learn a lot of things that are factually incorrect. It doesn’t have anything to do with native intelligence at all. It does mean that people who watch FOX are demonstrably more ill-informed than others.

In fact, if you read the thread, you’ll find people, like myself, arguing against the idea of any single measure of intelligence.
