- How ignorant, according to the cartoon, would you say Fox News is towards proven theories like global climate change?
- Would you say this is bashing Fox News or pointing out that they do not acknowledge scientific fact?
- Why are Fox News viewers generally less informed compared to political comedy shows, like The Daily Show or people that do not watch the news?
- Why does Fox News go against scientific fact such as global climate change, is it because of their own theories?
Umm not really sure this a great cartoon, but it shows that people can be affected by media for better or worse, and that political bias also affects the media which in turn the people.
This is a cartoon completely oversimplifies why Fox News, which is one of the few news stations that are on the Republican side, believes what they do about climate changes. They believe that business needs to have all the opportunity to be successful on its own, and not be limited by the government. No one is happy the environment is being harmed but everyone has priorities. Many are outraged by the Kyoto Treaty not be signed by George Bush, but that did have the same restrictions for China and India, which would ensure the fall of the United States as the top country. So, before you say they are saying facts are not true, think first about what the cartoon really means and how it represents an issue in a deceitful way.
