    I tend to get most of my news and gossip at the monthly cross burnings...

        I love how they lump Fox, Newsmax and OAN together. I mean, it's not like they had a predetermined result. Right? RIGHT?

                I think it’s interesting and pretty obvious to break out right leaning news networks from left. I’m kinda surprised you guys are getting so defensive.

                  Well, you claimed it was interesting. Maybe you can explain what's interesting about it? There certainly is nothing interesting about older people consuming older styles of media. There's nothing interesting about GOP primary voters tending to consume GOP friendly media. Those uninteresting facts, imply the statistics in the tweet.

                  Education is extremely important.

                    I would have thought social media would have been higher and tv lower. I was surprised at the relative strength of left leaning tv vs right. (There’s no way a similar percentage of dem primary voters would get their news from fox et al).

                    I didn’t find it damning. I found it interesting. Hence my surprise at the reaction

                      It’s also worth noting that reliable primary voters are older than registered party members. So these numbers would always skew ‘old’, for both parties.

                        Well, number one is the fact that there is a huge ass difference between FOX and Newsmax. And OANN IS a Russian Disinformation Network and shouldn’t even be allowed on the air.

                        And lumping ABC, CBS, NBC and CNN together is interesting. Are they claiming impartial coverage on those networks? And where is MSNBC?

                        As for online news, most of that still is the newspapers/television… Just on their websites… very little actual reporting happens on most of the online sites, just opinion pieces based on the news from the major networks and newspapers. There’s a few minor exceptions, but…

                            It's unfair that sometimes people assume jon is sneering at the GOP. In reality, it may have been upwards of 45 seconds since the last time he sneered at the GOP.
