I would also suspect that the common person who gets most of his news on the internet and distrusts mainstream media, as profiled in the survey, likely gets that news from sites that are far more biased than FOX would ever think of being, both on the left and the right.
Consistently, we see surveys revealing the common person tends to gravitate towards news sources we feel provide us with viewpoints we are pre-disposed to agree with.
And we have never lived in an era with access to a greater variety of opinions and sources of information than we do today.
