FOX News has the major share of the cable news audience and there is NO equivalent to RW hate radio. The right OWNS that very large market.
Your continued complaints about alleged brainwashing say more about the quality of your own education than they do about reality.
Or is it everyone but you that is susceptible to brainwashing?
I think that a light rinse would do for you.

Quote:
In the interview, Romney, then governor of Michigan and a presumptive Republican candidate for president, referred to his visit to South Vietnam in 1965 and declared:
“You know, when I came back from Vietnam, I’d just had the greatest brainwashing that anybody could get. … Well, not only by the generals but by the diplomatic corps over there. They do a very thorough job.”
The assertion that he had been duped into supporting America’s war effort in Vietnam revealed Romney’s muddled thinking and an uncertain command of foreign policy. (“Could the country afford a President who was so easily deceived?” the New York Times wondered.)
Forty-five years on, Romney’s comment remains striking both for clumsiness and self-destructiveness. And it’s been recalled not infrequently in recent months as Romney’s son, Mitt, has campaigned for the presidency.
When it is recalled, the “brainwashing” gaffe often is coupled with the stiletto-like rejoinder attributed to Eugene McCarthy, then a second-term U.S. senator from Minnesota.
McCarthy supposedly said that rather than brainwashing, “a light rinse” would have sufficed in Romney’s case.
