Stupid is as ...

You know what I mean. Via Fez, more backup to the previous report that said Fox 'News' viewers are the least informed in the world:

...

People who watch MSNBC and CNN exclusively can answer more questions about domestic events than people who watch no news at all. People who only watch Fox did much worse. NPR listeners answered more questions correctly than people in any other category.

...

So, if you want to be informed, you would do better watching no news at all than watching Fox. If you think this is a bug, rather than a feature of Fox 'News' programming, you would be wrong.

Would "domestic events" include knowing which side won the Civil War or what century it is now?

Indeed!
